Very long restart times in KDE - help

Restart times are around 2mins with lingered black screen.

What I found in journal is this

What I did since KDE was behaving nicely was:

1. Updated xorg server with YES option to move to etc/wayland even though I'm on X11 and have no wayland. But I guess that's a new default for xorg anyway.
2. Removed akonadi and kmail and the whole kde-pim-meta package.

What is KDE Global shortcuts server and what can I do about it?

Re: Very long restart times in KDE - help

Nope, Xorg and wayland are still separate projects.
I doubt very much that question came from pacman , but if it did it should be listed in pacman log .

sddm was last updated on 4 - 11 - 2020 so I doubt that was it.

Maybe some KDE or KWin thingy asked that and when you confirmed changed the setting to use wayland instead of X .

Not sure what "KDE Global shortcuts server" is but I doubt it's responsible for the issues.

Sorry, no idea how to determine whether you're running X or wayland.

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky

There were recent updates for xorg, including xorg-xwayland, but to be asked to replace X with Wayland I find hard to believe. Please post the relevant portion (or complete) of pacman.log with the exact messages, rather than your interpretation.

Re: Very long restart times in KDE - help

So the time of your first boot is OK?

Can you successfully log out and log in of a running session ?

Yes, sorry that was my bad. It just asked me to change dirs for xwayland, not to replace. I'm still using X11.

Anyway, the issue seems sorted itself once I deleted akonadi junk from /etc/xdg.

Thanks everyone for guesses, I will mark this thread solved in next couple of days. Will test it some more in case it wasn't just a temporal fix.
