Re: KDE stable: Too many time from loging to load
Hello. Problem solved after reinstalling the entire system again, but this time using the netinstall iso image. I thought that both methods of installing Debian were equivalent, but they are not. There are subtle differences in the resulting system configuration... and different errors. Anyway, the system is working fine right now, with only a pair of seconds from login to full usable KDE desktop, just as usual. Greetings

Thanks for clarification! Ah, I have mistaken Keysmith with Keychain: https://carlschwan.eu/2024/07/01/initial-work-on-keychain/ So Keychain is the KeepassXC based password manager while Keysmith is similar to Aegis Authenticator, AndOTP or FreeOTP+ on Android. Nice so we can do second factor on laptop. Of course if the laptop is the one authenticating, it may still be wise to have the second factor on another device. Although the security of many Android devices… well let's not dive into that here. But with PostmarketOS on a smart phone or some Linux on a tablet… and I think that is mostly the target audience. Many of those new apps are geared towards use on smaller form factor mobile devices, but can be used on a desktop as well. Regarding somewhat new apps there is also Arianna. An alternative EPub reader to Okular. Aurélien just uploaded a version to experimental that should be installable. The 24.05 version currently in the archive refers to qml packages that are not available. Also kde-inotify-survey warns of excessive use of INotify so one knows when to raise the limit or do something else about it. Thank you, -- Martin

I have reinstalled Debian two or three times during the last weekend using the installer in the Debian 12.7 KDE live CD and every time I got the 20 seconds delay at KDE login. Reinstalled again from Debian 12.7 Netinst (thanks to an advice from a friend) and everything worked just fine at the first try. My friend also noticed differences between both installers, that is the reason he recommended me to try the netinstall method once I say I used the live CD. And he was right. Indeed both installations are different. For example, using the live CD installer results in a "sudo installation" with no root account and the regular user in sudo group, but the netinst installer configures and sets up a proper root account and does not add the regular user to the sudo group. As I said, there are subtle differences between them, and probably the installed packages and initial configuration files are also different. Bye!

Great, thanks hefee!
Checked my GMAIL/SMTP/XAUTH2 connection/communication while sending a
NEW email out of Kmail2:
`QT_MESSAGE_PATTERN="[%{time process} %{type}] %{appname} %{category}
%{function} - %{message}" QT_LOGGING_RULES="*.*=true;qt.*=false"
akonadictl restart`
..guess I need to switch to Google-Authenticator app on my smartphone :-).
