<canceled> After Boot Ethernet Connection Delay
« on: February 02, 2011, 01:26:07 PM »
Running KDE fully updated. Until recently my Ethernet connection to the Internet occurred before my desktop fully loaded. Now it is 5-10 minutes after it loads. If I choose "yes" on the pop-up that asks if I want to connect it freezes and I have a heck of a time getting rid of the Drak Connect box which just freezes. Clicking "x" or Alt+F4 doesn't kill it. If I try going through PCC instead PCC will not load. It just freezes at the initial loading screen. Now the internet does eventually connect on it's own but the icon on the toolbar doesn't change to connected and getting rid of the frozen Drak connect or PCC loading thing is difficult. Usually end up having to kill the session and start a new one.

While I'm tied up trying to get connected it just connects. I don't know why it connects. I don't think it is anything I do. Lights on router indicate I have a connection to the internet while all this is going on. It's just no connection between router and PCLOS.

Maybe all three problems are related maybe not. I don't know.

I have experienced a slightly similar problem with a delayed connection.
On my Acer Aspire: After installing virtualbox my wireless delayed @ 2 minutes after the desktop loaded. But then the indicator lighted & all was normal. Before the vbox install, the wireless indicator lit up while the desktop was loading.
I uninstalled vbox & all reverted to normal. This started after upgrading my kernel a few kernel versions in the past, so it seemed related to the vbox kernel module.
My issue was much simpler than yours, but maybe this can be a help.

I do not have Virtualbox installed but I do have the kernel module for VB installed. If I don't get more specific help I may try uninstalling it. Thanks for the suggestions.

May be running drakconnect from Terminal will give some more info on the delay? Say No to "Do you want to start the connection?" and try in Terminal.

Ray2047,
I had a similar issue once -- The remedy was to remove duplicate network connections in PCC>Network&Internet>Remove a Connection

Another time VBox gave me similar trouble only when I used bridge mode for VB network connection (but that was a long while back -- doesn't seem to apply now)

Thanks will try the sugestions and post back.

Edit: Running PCC doesn't work. It freezes at the splash screen. Does the same thing from CL and no errors are listed. Reinstalling doesn't help.

Edit: PCC finally loads after ten minutes.

please try this command from console shell:

$ su <passwd>
#
# service network restart

and report back how much time it require to complete, possibly report back also the output of the command.

I do not see the last OK, on the eth0 line, assuming you have just not copied the OK you have no delay in setting up your network interface,
and in that case your problem look like not related to the LAN connection.

But you have not had the OK "almost instantly", and took long time, then your problem is bound to network configuration.

How to proceed, heavily depend on the proper answer.

Yes, it is there. I just failed to copy it.

you should really try to provide us some additional hints about your system ...

All application are slow than usual ? Only some application, in this case which programs ?
How is working your internet connection ?
Have you recently removed/installed some particular package ? (other than updates)

Any other info about unusual behavior...

Nothing new installed. Everything else works fine. I don't shut down every month but this started after the last time I did. No trouble with my Internet connection once it connected. Router is already connected to the internet when I boot. Gigabite mobo with a 3200 AMD 64 bit Athlon and !gig of memory. Sata hard drive. Root 2Gb out od 24 used. Home 3.8Gb out of 79.6. /USR 11.3 out of 17.4.  Connected via Ethernet to a 2-Wire single port router.

drakconnect is available in both text and graphics flavours:

can you try to use the text version of drakconnect ?
go to a console (CTRL + ALT + F1), log on there as root, type drakconnect, then let us know about the result.

By going to text after the desktop loads I find the boot process is hung at:
Quote
Trying to use dev tmpes
After that finally clears boot finishes and I connect in a matter of seconds. Tried it twice from a shut down and the same result.
