This is an older nvidia video card, which is running with the latest supported drivers. I have not had any issues until a couple of months ago.
Code:
02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF119M [GeForce GT 520M] (rev a1)
        Subsystem: ZOTAC International (MCO) Ltd. GF119M [GeForce GT 520M]
        Kernel driver in use: nvidia
        Kernel modules: nvidia_drm, nvidia
02:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation GF119 HDMI Audio Controller (rev a1)
        Subsystem: ZOTAC International (MCO) Ltd. GF119 HDMI Audio Controller
        Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel
        Kernel modules: snd_hda_intel
It takes a really long time until X starts while the nvidia-drivers are loading.

Take a look at the startup time.
Has anyone observed the same issue?

Cr0t,

Did you upgrade your kernel around that time?

The gap in your dmesg lines ends with
Code:
[  445.500004] random: crng init done


https://www.google.com/search?q=random+crng+init+done+hangs

Many people having similar delay, not necessarily nvidia related.

HTH

I tried 'rngd' last night, but that did not help. Just now, I tried 'haveged' and it works great!

Thank You!
