    Compaq Presario F700 extremely slow boot after 10.10 install [5 minutes bootup]

    I made a clean install of Ubunto 10.10 on my Compaq Presarion F700, nVida graphics, AMD Turion 64x2.

    Installation was fine.

    When I boot, it takes a lot of time, 5 minutes or more. Also, after the system loads I get those applet errors I've attached. Sometimes I get all the applet errors and sometimes it get few of them.

    I tried several configs of "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT" but still no luck.

    Please help me - thanks very much

    If so, then it would be good if you reopen the bug report (as 'confirmed') and add any relevant information you have.

    No, that does not describe my problem. Acutualy, my problem is really slow boot. This kind of booting makes the icons crash. I know for sure the problem lies with GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT settings on /etc/default/grub. I tried many options and I left it empty at least. It works fine now. No incons crash and the boot is much more faster, even though not the speed Ubunto boot normally has.

    So, GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT settings is my issue and I don't know the right ones, expced that empty works better than any other combination.
