I have to wait a long time (about 15s) after entering login credentials. I read some other posts but didn't find anything relevant to my situation. In the .xsession-errors log, there are two errors and I think one of them could be the cause of the delayed login.
compiz (core) - Info: Starting plugin: session
I/O warning : failed to load external entity "/home/user/.compiz/session/10e5e71fff61fc4529136368274098992100000031290040"
and the below nautilus error even though I have disabled Personal File Sharing in startup applications.
Nautilus-Share-Message: Called "net usershare info" but it failed: 'net usershare' returned error 255:
net usershare: cannot open usershare directory /var/lib/samba/usershares. Error No such file or directory
If one of these is the reason, please help me resolve it. Or let me know what else I could try out.
Update: I removed nautilus-share and dont get that 2nd error anymore.
Any idea what that compiz error means?
To solve nautilus error try with: I sort this problem creating a group call admin:
sudo groupadd admin
Check that the admin group is part of the sudoers:
sudo cat /etc/sudoers
Now you add your user to the admin group :
sudo usermod -aG admin username
you can check if your user is part of the group :
sudo cat /etc/group | grep '^admin'
