Hi forum,
I first noticed this problem on tinycorelinux 9.0 but it get worse on tiny core 10.
If I load onboot the intel video drivers - which of course need xorg - I have to wait about 60 seconds before the window manager GUI starts after having loaded all the booting extensions. But this is just one part of the story.
Every program launched through the wbar icon takes about 30 second to show up, freezing the mouse and the wbar zooming animation (strangely this doesn't happen with xterm or with an ondemand program. In theese last cases the response is immediate).
On tiny core 9.0 the amount of the time elapsed between the clic on a wbar icon and the corresponding program being launched was of about 8 seconds.
To avoid this annoying problem, I use the xorg's vesa video drivers, but this prevents me to suspend to RAM because with this video driver, the computer resumes back with a black screen.
I think this is a problem of the newer kernel versions and the intel video drivers because with other linux distros - namely, debian 9.0, ubuntu 18.10, mint 19 and trisquel 8.0, I got a similar problem, similar in that it was just the booting process to be extremely slow. taking more than 5 minutes
My laptop is a 10 years old Acer aspire 5315.
I run trisquel linux 8.0 - installed on the HD and TinyCore 10 from a USB stick.
I don't exactly remember how I speeded up the booting process with trisquel linux, sorry.
I hope you can help me.
Thank you
