Lot of time to wait until X starts

Hi people. I have everything up to date and I'm currently starting my DE using Start X at Boot.
This is my .xinitrc:
# Make sure this is before the 'exec' command or it won't be executed.
[ -f /etc/xprofile ] && . /etc/xprofile
[ -f ~/.xprofile ] && . ~/.xprofile
if [ -d /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d ]; then
for f in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/*; do
[ -x "$f" ] && . "$f"
done
unset f
fi
# exec gnome-session
# exec startkde
# exec startxfce4
# ...or the Window Manager of your choice
xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources
exec ck-launch-session gnome-session
From the time I enter my username and password, to the time Gnome actually starts, there are more than 20 seconds. That is a LOT of time. During that time, the only thing shown is the typical "Last login: ".
This has been happening for a few weeks now, but I'm sick of it so I'm asking for help.
Thanks!

Not a frequent GNOME user myself, but give this a shot and see if it helps.

Bought Premier Elements 13 yesterday. EVERY time I try to open a set of clips with Editor, I am told I have to sign into my Adobe first. I do this and wait for several minutes for the password dialogue box to open, enter my password. then wait and wait until my pw is recognized. Accept agreement. Agreement screen disappears and I'm back where I started. Try to open video clips with editor again and get the same demand to log in. Please advise asap. thx

Premier Elements 13 Organizer Works. Editor doesn't. Log in doesn't work
It is uncertain just how far we can go to help you since you do not appear to have Premiere Elements any
longer.Seems you demanded a refund from Adobe Chat, got it, and now are left with a non purchased program which I
am not sure can be used.
Duplicates tend to confuse the person asking the question as well as those attempting to reply. As I suggested in the

How can I wait until a Swing.Timer has finished?

I have a Swing.Timer runing which displays some animated text (more precisely it fades out a text with a delay of 50 until all characters are erased.
Afterwards a time consuming operation shall begin. How can I achieve that this operation waits to start until the text has been faded out? The time to fade out the text depends on the length of the text, of course.
So, how can I make the operation waiting until the Timer has finished its work?
Thanks,
Dirk

                sb.deleteCharAt(0);
                label.setText(sb.toString());
            else
                label.setForeground(color);
                label.setText(text);
                Timer timer = (Timer)e.getSource();
                timer.stop();
                // ***** start process here ***
        }The timer here continues until a condition is satisfied (here it's where the Stringbuffer that holds the text that is sent to the JLabel is empty). So all you have to do is place any code that needs to happen when the Timer ends in the else block. It's so simple as to be trivial.

How do I get the X-Y GRID INSPECTION.VI to wait until data collection is complete before it starts moving?

I am using a PCI-7344 card with LabView to control a 3-axis servo motor motion system in conjunction with a data acquisition system. The intent is to collect data at each grid point of an X-Y grid.
Using the X-Y Grid Inspection (Template).vi as a starting point, I programmed my data acquisition vi to start when the Check Blend Complete Status.vi returned a value of TRUE. I expected the while loop to complete once the data acquisition was complete, but the system starts moving at the same time the data acquisition starts.
Is there a way to force the motion system to wait for the data acquisition to complete prior to moving to the next waypoint?

If you enter a positive value into the blend factor control (period in ms), the board will wait this amount of time until it starts the next move.
The Check for Blend Complete.flx function returns TRUE when this wait period is finished. Thus you will see the bahvior you have described.
There are three options I can think of:
1. Check the move complete status in order to start your measurement after the move has come to a stop.
This method might be not the ideal solution as you need to be sure that your measurement doesn't take longer than the wait period you have entered as blend factor. Of course you can make this period very long but then your overall test time will increase.
2. To avoid the disadvantage of 1. don't use blending at all. Instead start a
move to the desired position, wait for move complete, do your measurement and start the next move. This method makes sure that you don't waste time.
3. This might be the smartest and fastest method but there are a few additional requirements:
- The time for your measurement is fixed
- You can use an external trigger or scanclock to start your measurement.
If these requirements are met you could combine the x-y grid example with a breakpoint example.
You could program your board to generate a breakpoint (trigger) at each target position. The Breakpoint output of your 7344 is connected to the trigger or scanclock or whatever input of your measurement device. Now each time your axes reach the next target position the 7344 fires a trigger and your measurement device acquires data.

Measure time of an measurement and if measurement time is less than 90 second wait until 90 second and then proceed to next steps or stop.

Hi
I am trying to make a program
      During execute a measurement count the time.
      If measurement time is more than 90 second proceed to the next steps (or stop the measurement)
      If measurement time is less than 90 second, wait until 90 second and then proceed to next steps or stop
I appreciate deeply if some help me.

What sort of measurement are you talking about? What affects the time of your measurement? The very basic description you have is of a state machine and there are numerous examples of that
1. Actually I would like measure the time of "Alignment" function done by wafer test equipment name Prober ( the model is "UF3000" made by TOKYO SEIMITSU CO., LTD.
2.. Right now the "Alignment" function is started when a GPIB command is written as "N" and wait for resposne 70 in polling.
Please refer to the attachment for Alignement function if it help you.
In the attahement
For Alignment error delay we are using =600
Alignment counter =30000
align loop cnt = 30000
This is a program wriiten by another person and he is not availabe any more. What I am trying to do is
1. During execute a "Alignment " function count the time.
2. If  "Alignment " function time is more than 90 second proceed to the next steps
3. If "Alignment " function is less than 90 second, wait until 90 second and then proceed to next steps

Any work you do in Lightroom is in the catalog. It is impossible to use Lightroom without a catalog.
In addition, your photos are filed in a specific location, which is determined when you import the photos (this may be a location you have specified or it may be the default location chosen by Lightroom).
So ... unless you specifically choose to delete your photos, your photos have not been deleted. To find them, open Lightroom and select File->Open Recent and select each catalog shown there until you find the one with your 170 photos.
And now ... a word to the wise: as gvb279 and Keith said, you absolutely need to stop doing whatever it is you are doing and learn the basics of Lightroom. You are clearly in need of such basic understanding. In addition to the links given above, there are many valuable instructional tutorials here: Getting Started with Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 | Adobe TV

Mac book pro early 2011 takes a lot of time to start up and shut down.

Should i install snow leapord again or should i bear with the issue untill an update is there pls help im really worried..... Thank you.

You'll only be abe to repair permissions on the partition where your operating system is installed. For instance the disk on which I have Lion installed is name MacJoseph so that is the only disk I can repair permission on unless I boot from an install DVD. To do a clean install see these instructions. It's not difficult at all. This article may explain more about a clean install. To re-download the Lion installer open your App store application, at the top of the App store where it say's 'Purchased' hold down the option key while clicking on 'purchased.' This will open your purchases and allow you to download Lion. When the installer finishes downloading quit the installer and it will be in your applications folder. Hope this helps.

Using AOL emails, Firefox goes into a "not Responding mode" I have to wait until it times out.

using AOL emails, Firefox goes into a '''"Not Responding" mode.
I have to wait until it times out. Happens every time I log on.
I am using windows 7, HP lap top. I am using MSE for virus detector. This may have started sense I switched to MSE.
I am not sure.

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

No more than 1 sessions at a time are allowed. Please wait until open sessions expire.

I have been unable to log into my Actiontec MI424WR router this week, The router returns the message "No more than 1 sessions at a time are allowed. Please wait until open sessions expire." every time I try to log in. This has been going on for days. Even pulling the power to reboot it did no change. I'm the only user in the household that would log into it, so I don't understand how this could occur. How can I get in?

I really don't want to do a hard reset as I have a handful of custon port forwarding rules that I had created. I'm not a wiz at that, so it would take me too much time to re-create! I may have no choice. Next time I can get in I will try the backup of the config file. I hope it contains the port forwarding rules.
The backup function should work fine, I have used it to save my Steam port forward rules to my hard drive, after a pin hole reset I was able to restore successfully. I did configure mine to 1 session & ALWAYS logout when I am done. I have never had any problems logging into the router. But in your case you may need more than 1 session allowed.
Are you using a native or 3rd party app to remember your router ID/password? IF you are do not do this, you are "defeating" the built in security of the router

Return Code value using 'starting new task' and 'wait until'

I'm having a minor issue with some return code values in my ABAP.
This is what part of it used to look like before I modified it:
With Code in version 1, the sy-subrc was not always zero, sometimes it would be 4.
That was fine, and my abap would do something based on the non-zero RC.
had a need to implement an RFC timeout, the only way I could see to do it was to use 'starting new task' etc as seen in Version 2.
However, with my changes, sy-subrc is always zero.
The ABAP runs fine but I know that sy-subrc should sometimes be 4, even when it returns within the allotted 60 seconds.
Maybe I've coded it incorrectly.
Can someone point me in the right direction?

My laptop is taking a lot of time to start up.It just shows the Lenovo screen and stops there.What could be the problem?
Thanksin advance.

hi mamuninayak,
The system might be experiencing a boot or a POST issue.
- Remove all USB devices.
- Remove the AC adapter and battery then held down the power button for 15 sec.
Reconnect just the AC and try.
-See if BIOS can be reset.
Start hiting F2 when while powering the system on.
If succesfull in booting into BIOS. Hit F9 the F10
Try Removing the Harddrive and turn the system on, See if there will be any changes.
Hope this helps

not knowing anything about your MacBook Pro, no one can say. Please provide additional information about it — which model it is, which version of OS X is installed on it, how much RAM it has, what capacity internal disk it has, and how much free space it currently has.
