Linux Lite Forums

Hello, downloaded Linux lite 4.0.  Installed all updates. Everything is great except for the start up time. It takes as much as 7 minutes to bring me to the desktop. Tks for your help  :

Performance Tips:

- For start up (boot time) - if you have no plans to run VirtualBox, and you want faster boots, you can remove it's supported additions:

Code: [Select]

sudo apt purge virtualbox*
sudo systemctl stop vboxadd.service
sudo systemctl stop vboxadd-service.service
sudo systemctl disable vboxadd.service
sudo systemctl disable vboxadd-service.service

This will greatly reduce boot-up

Charvie

1. Set Method in IPv6 Settings to ignore (assuming you don't use IPv6)
2. uninstall Samba if you don't need it

3.
sudo apt install haveged
sudo systemctl enable haveged

;D ;D ;D

First get rid of the vbox stuff and boot time should improve dramatically.
Second LL 4.0 oob is on the 4.15 kernel. Doubt that havege will make any difference. The bigger issue is the OEM configuration of how your cpu will use the ram on a 3g system with the 4.15 kernel at bootup. If you get your boot down to around 40 seconds you will be doing well.
