    The reboot time at all shouldn't change as there is a lot going on
    in parallel. Finding out what should finish before BOINC is the hard
    part. But this can be fixed in the init script I think. Problem is
    that there must be a fallback of some sort in case there is no GPU
    and we may not want to wait on some other process that is not
    existing.<br>

                                    Hi,<br>
                                    <br>
                                    I think this bug (1140597) is really
                                    a timing issue at boot time. As this
                                    seems to only affect ATI/AMD
                                    hardware I think that the drivers
                                    for these cards either get loaded
                                    after boinc or they take too long to
                                    load so they are not present when
                                    boinc tries to detect GPUs.<br>
                                    <br>
                                    My first try to see if this is
                                    correct would be to insert a time
                                    delay in the boinc init script and
                                    see if this helps. If boinc can
                                    successfully find the GPU after the
                                    delay we need to find the script
                                    that is loading the driver and
                                    instruct the boinc init script to
                                    load after this.<br>
                                    <br>
                                    If MestreLion would be so kind to
                                    try this out it would be great. You
                                    just need to make some local changes
                                    to your init script and restart your
                                    machine. If this is okay for you I
                                    will send you a line to add to your
                                    init script.<br>
                                    <br>
                                    @Gianfranco: does the boinc Ubuntu
                                    package use the same init script as
                                    the Debian package? I only have a
                                    working Debian installation.<br>
