Hi eveyone!
3 days ago I decided to install laptop mode tools, and since I didn't notice any result, I remove it the next day. But since I installed it, I've notice that the "splash screen" is taking 10 seconds, when before that it barely was taking 1 !
Yes, 10 seconds is something I can wait, but I just have to know why is that, why is taking so much between kdm and kde, and I want to be sure that any setting from laptop mode tools is around here.
I literally have two days searching why this is happening. It's driving me crazy, since it shoudn't be happening.
Thanks in advance!

Hi! Did you check the logs? Run in a terminal "journalctl -b -p 3". It prints most of the errors.
One reason for this could be if you didn't disable the systemd service before or after uninstalling, i.e. "systemctl disable laptop-mode". Many times when I uninstall something with a systemd service and I don't disable the (removed) service, it shows up in the logs that the service does not exist.
BTW, I also removed some months ago laptop-mode-tools and substituted them with TLP. Easier to configure and it just works.

Well, this is awkward...
Turns out I just discovered "systemd-anallyze blame", it was netctl trying to set up my network automatically (I guess I installed before laptop-mode-tools and stuffs)...
Kostas213, thanks for the advices! Also, I'll try TLP.
I think I better start to learn more about systemd commands. (I don't know how to see these things in Debian, for example).

Check also NetworkManager. I've been using it with KDE and it runs fine. If you already use it, just disable netctl by "systemctl disable netctl". If you install NetworkManager, also install kdeplasma-applets-plasma-nm, it is an applet for KDE.
About Debian, since they don't use systemd yet (I think they are going to use it in the next version), you can check the logs at /var/log. If I recall correctly, the file must be named "messages.log" or something similar.
