Public bug reported:
I recently upgraded from 18.04 to 18.10, and after the upgrade I
immediately started seeing very long delays after login. Not only that,
the xfce4-notifyd aspect would just time out and never complete loading.
The solution was
systemctl disable bluetooth
So, to disable the bluetooth daemon.
Now, my computer doesn't have bluetooth, and I don't plug bluetooth
devices/radios into it really ever.
During the "wait" time, things like "ctrl esc" and other ways to bring
up the application menu simply didn't respond. And I would have to
manually run and fork the xfce4-notifyd proccess.
I suspect bluetooth is timing out looking for devices that don't/never
exist(ed), but I don't know why that behaviour changed drastically in
18.10. This is a very poor user experience, and it took me weeks on and
off to figure out.
* Ubuntu 18.10 + XFCE4
* i7 980x
* 24GB RAM
* Asus Xonar DGX
* GTX 960
* 3x1920x1080 monitors (all in landscape)
Hope this gets solved, because there's seriously no good solutions on
the internet that I could find. This seriously was stabbing in the dark
here.
