How can I debug an issue with Xubuntu 12.04 (fresh install) which just waits idle after a login for about 30 seconds?
The login screen is delayed correctly. After login, I get my desktop background, but no panels or auto-starting apps.
It doesn't seem to be an authentication/pam issue, because I can login without delay at the console while the graphical session is still stuck. There's no disk or cpu activity and no obvious respawning of any process when I look at htop. There's nothing obviously wrong in .xsession-errors
. Most interesting errors:
openConnection: connect: No such file or directory
cannot connect to brltty at :0
WARNING: gnome-keyring:: couldn't connect to: /tmp/keyring-wFn4VR/pkcs11: No such file or directory

Bootchart seems to end before I login, so it's not that helpful.
Where else can I look for information?
While I don't know of a fix, I can tell you it's not just you. I have the same issue. – Sean W. – 2012-05-09T23:01:49.790
You write "the login screen is not displayed" but yet you are able to log in and at least your session starts to build. So it appears that your login manager at least is working. Does this occur for all users? Even with a new profile? – Bram – 2012-05-18T16:23:53.677
@Bram My silly mistake, thanks for spotting it. Corrected to "The login screen is delayed correctly.". It's a completely new system, clean account was affected. – viraptor – 2012-05-18T21:56:55.633
Anything in
/var/log/Xorg.*.log
? Is this a full install or did you manually select packages and are perhaps missing some component? – Bram – 2012-05-19T12:46:07.137
