I don't know if this a generalize problem; but any of you is getting long times to actually get into the (Cinnamon) desktop? I had this issue with old version and I though that was because it was another shell for GNOME instead of a desktop made with GTK+ libraries from scratch, like it's supposedly now. Is there a solution (obviously there is), that it doesn't have the need to hack the code of Cinnamon (I'm not in a rush to learn GTK+).
