    Desktop does not appear after entering user password

    Hi there

    Since a few days I have the following problem with Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS on my Notebook.
    After I enter the user password, nothing happens for about 100 seconds. The screen is black and the mouse cursor is visible.
    After that, the login for my user usually appears again. Sometimes the login works after the second or third attempt, but each time with this long delay.

    It may also not work 10 times or more in a row. A restart has already helped in this case.
    As an attachment I have added a partial except of the end of my log file.

    Do you have free space on the disk?
    If you log in as a different user (Make a new one if needed), is it OK?

    Hello ActionParsnip

    Thanks for your answer.
    The disc space on my system seems to be okay:

    Dateisystem Größe Benutzt Verf. Verw% Eingehängt auf
    tmpfs 1.5G 2.4M 1.5G 1% /run
    /dev/nvme0n1p2 916G 68G 802G 8% /
    tmpfs 7.5G 0 7.5G 0% /dev/shm
    tmpfs 5.0M 4.0K 5.0M 1% /run/lock
    efivarfs 148K 26K 118K 19% /sys/firmware/efi/efivars
    /dev/nvme0n1p1 511M 32M 480M 7% /boot/efi

    I will try to add a different user and look if the problem is still there.
    I don't know if that's relevant. I have a dual boot system for Ununtu and Windows 10.
    Unfortunately, I can't do without Windows completely yet.

    I have now created a test user account.
    Under this account, the user login seems to proceed normally.
    With the existing user the login worked after the second attempt today.
    I have attached an updated log file again.

    OK you may want to check your user is the owner of all of its home folder as a good start

    As far as I can tell, it looks good in terms of user rights.

    Re: Desktop does not appear after entering user password

    Today I installed the latest update offered to me by Ubuntu.
    At the moment, the desktop usually appears on the first login attempt, but it still takes an unusually long time, when I log in until the desktop appears (about 90 seconds).
    With an AMD Ryzen 7 5700U with Radeon Graphics, this shouldn't take that long....
    I'm wondering what could be causing this delay and what commands I could use in the terminal to track down the problem.

    I'm wondering what could be causing this delay and what commands I could use in the terminal to track down the problem.
    Try this....
    Code:
    systemd-analyze blame
    Post results between code tags.

    @ him660:
    Thank you for your answer.
    I'm not shure, what you meant with "Post results between code tags"
    hopefully it's ok how I post the result.

    Kind regards, Daniel

    The boot process itself is normal.
    The delay occurs only after the user login until the desktop appears.
