This patch (and the packages including this patch) work around the slow log in, but introduce a serious regression: the first time lightdm is started after boot, the Shutdown menu in lightdm is empty. We reverted to the lightdm package in ubuntu and rebuilt the accountsservice package from 12.10 on 12.04. Now the problem is fixed and this regression does not happen.

[Bug 996791] Re: Xubuntu 12.04 extremely slow login
Interesting are the things (at least in my situation) that make the problem NOT happen: - logging in with an account that is not having an encrypted homedrive. - no network connection during login. This one is interesting: Usually applications like Synaptic that need a root password show the same annoying delay before the "enter password" dialog show up. But when I unplug the network I cannot only login to my encrypted account without a delay, but applications like Synaptic show no delay, even when I have connected to the network again. My conclusion is that something goes wrong during login. If that goes wrong the whole session is suffering - including logout. If the login is o.k. everything is fine - regardless of network connection etc. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/996791 Title: Xubuntu 12.04 extremely slow login To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/accountsservice/+bug/996791/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 996791] Re: Xubuntu 12.04 extremely slow login
I just installed xbuntu on a new netbook (acer ao756) and I believe I run into this exact same problem: After I enter my password and hit return, it takes a long time to start xfce. I checked /var/log and found some strange error messages in three log files, all seeming related to lightdm. Note in particular log file #3, the warning at 36sec and at 86sec (and more to the point, the time gap preceeeding these two). I run xubuntu 12.04 on my desktop as well and I have never experience this delay between login and xfce starting. The desktop does have higher spec and to my surprise I have the same x-0-greeter.log error (log file #1) before, but lightdm on the desktop has no warning message (log file #3). All, this slow-login problem on the netbook happens often but not always -- 50-60% of the time? One more thing: the directory /usr/share/themes/Greybird-lightdm has a lot few files/folders than other themes (e.g. Default). I wonder if this is an xfce thing or it is a general lightdm problem (see log #1 for example). Other than this problem I really love this little netbook. Thanks for your help!

@ferro, thanks alot for pointing this out, I can confirm this here. Removing i386 libraries solved the problem for me.

But this removed also some software I use (wine, rhythmbox). I reinstalled both. rhythmbox did not seem to have any i386 deps, but wine installed alot of i386 libs again. The problem is STILL gone... Here is a list of i386 libs now tagged as "rc" in dpkg -l (which were installed but are removed).

I have here two machines that are hardware identical, same xubuntu precise 64 bit on it, but one shows the bug and the other not. The only differences are some user applications, and what is more fundamental is that the one that does not have the bug effect is a pure 64 bit environment, while the buggy one has 32 bit compatibility libs (ia32-libs) and 32 bit applications installed.

[Bug 996791] Re: Xubuntu 12.04 extremely slow login
** Description changed: The core issue is that /usr/lib/accountsservice/accounts-daemon doesn't accept dbus messages on boot. The symptom to this problem is that, after successfulling entering your login information, the system takes about 85 seconds to boot. The real issue occuring is that /usr/lib/accountsservice/accounts-daemon isn't being started correctly by ligthdm. The accounts-daemon wont accept dbus requests, and so the dbus timeout is hit during boot. Before I start, here is a run down on my machine/setup: Intel I7. Xubuntu 12.04. Encrypted home drive. Running compiz. Enabling the log files on lightdm, the follow warnings are displayed (Notice the times): [+11.58s] DEBUG: Greeter quit [+36.60s] WARNING: Could not call SetXSession: Timeout was reached [+61.63s] WARNING: Could not call FindUserByName: Timeout was reached [+61.63s] DEBUG: Dropping privileges to uid 1000 [+61.63s] DEBUG: Restoring privileges [+86.65s] WARNING: Could not call FindUserByName: Timeout was reached If the /usr/lib/accountsservices/accounts-daemon is restarted, after the lightdm login screen is displayed, but before a login, then xfce will start immediately. Otherwise boot times take about 87 seconds. Also, it was found that the program d-feet, is unable to retrive valid methods from /usr/lib/accountsservices/accounts-daemon before it is restarted. After the deamon is restarted, all dbus methods are visuable and communicate correctly. - A temporary "fix" has been posted: - 1. Login - 2. cd /usr/share/xsessions - 3. Edit xubuntu.desktop: - . Replace the follow: - Exec=startxfce4 - To read: - Exec=startxfce4-modified - - 4. cd /usr/bin - 5.

Ensure the permissions are correct on the script: - sudo chmod 755 /usr/bin/startxfce4-modified - - 7.
