[SOLVED] GDM very slow startup, but only when service enabled

Hello,

I'm having an issue with GDM. When I enable the service it takes >60s to start after a bootup, whereas if I log into a tty and manually do systemctl start gdm.service, it loads up in a flash. I have debug logs of both happening.

This is a normal startup after boot (dpaste.com/2SQYX3E.txt):

Re: [SOLVED] GDM very slow startup, but only when service enabled

Sounds like an entropy issue, does installing and enabling haveged help?


No, it didn't "fix" anything. It just shifted the brokeness one space to the right. - jasonwryan

Well according to the wiki I shouldn't need Haveged.

# cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail
3583

Should I try it anyways?

I spoke too soon! You were right. Enabling haveged.service does the trick. What are the implications of having that service enabled?

Re: [SOLVED] GDM very slow startup, but only when service enabled

I've been having the same problem. After reading the wiki entry about haveged it seemed to me that it would be better to use rngd and I realised I didn't have rng-tools installed. I installed that and enabled rngd.service, and that seems to have solved the problem for me without having to enable haveged.service.

Re: [SOLVED] GDM very slow startup, but only when service enabled

Although enabling rng-tools seemed to fix the slow booting, I'm still getting a similar delay when resuming from suspend. Enabling haveged too hasn't helped either. The systemd log doesn't show anything relevant. I guess that gnome-shell uses gdm to display the lock screen when suspending, is that what I should be looking at still? Is there a way to increase its logging verbosity?
