Hi everyone,

since about a week or two I notived that after I log in with SDDM I have to wait about a minute until plasma actually starts.
After login my screens turn black. About a minute later I see the plasma loading screen.

I looked into this problem and found out that plasma starts multiple dbus-daemons and the startup stalls till one of them dies:

running dbus-daemons in SDDM:
Code:

message+   550  0.1  0.0  34624  4168 ?        Ss   07:34   0:00 /usr/bin/dbus-daemon --system --address=systemd: --nofork --nopidfile --systemd-activation

running dbus-daemons after login:
Code:

running dbus-daemons after startup completes:

I am runnig the current plasma/frameworks from portage

Any ideas what's causing this? Or how I can proceed fixing it?

rellig107, would it help to compare 1 min to some other benchmark. How long has the problem been going on? You may need to take somewhat more of a patient approach to finding out if and when the stalls in services are doing something that is not being logged to your system. Make sure if you are spending any time at all to look at the output of systemd journal, the version of a log that is configurable for whatever purposes. You might also check for a debug option that increases log verbosity, before goving up completely that would be a waste! Which processes are forking anyway is it the shell, desktop or some application process?

rellig107, can you post the configuration for sddm? It is located at
Quote:
/etc/sddm.conf
-- could be a long shot but in case something in the Display manager is causing you trouble. In reality it is more likely to be something else, so might as well also post emerge --info -pv dbus It gives more of a chance of finding what in the install could be causing you this trouble.

Just post the output to emerge -pv dbus, since you already posted the --info stuff

Ronaldo is right, man. If you can think of something please share, including any recent changes to the portage sets or breaks while doing a update with emerge to just one of those sets. Also, if it isn't related to some recently tampered with other application, then maybe something as basic as just removing it, and then adding it back sys-apps/dbus.?

To Add to the last thought:
Have you tried to test the login process using a different DE? It would help to determine whether or not the source of the problems includes KDE related software application, or other software, like dbus or systemd (itself).
