Increased Boot-Up Speed....
- 1 minI found out a way to increase boot-up speed in Arch. Previously, I used to load the network daemon in /etc/rc.conf Daemons array. The network daemon used to take quite a bit of time to load and also sometimes fail killing splashy(giving a message: “Something failed, killing splashy”) and falling back to text mode. But now I replaced the network daemon with networkmanager daemon and it works like a charm. Boot-up speed has increased and splashy does not crash anymore. It’s great.
To manage network with networkmanager in KDE4, install kdemod-networkmanager-git and kdemod-networkmanagement-knetworkmanager-kde4 and reboot. You’ll see the knetworkmanager icon in the System Tray. That’s it.
But one thing which I don’t understand is why network daemon takes so much time to load and networkmanager lesser.
