• sddm xorg wayland issue?

    Hi people,

    For quite some time, but maybe only since I turned to the wayland side, I've had huge delay at shutdown. I eventually rolled up my sleeves and looked under the bonnet.

    I used this how-to: https://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/Debugging/ #diagnosingshutdownproblems

    Which allowed me to figure out it was sddm process that systemd was waiting for.

    Here an excerpt of `shutdown-log.txt`: https://termbin.com/gyi4o

    Here an excerpt of `Xorg.0.log`: https://termbin.com/9sw1

    At which point I tried what other people tried too: instead of shutting down
    in one single step from plasma session, I first logged out, then shut down from sddm screen. And it resulted in a no delay shutdown. So it seems a no-brainer.

    System is upgraded doing: (last week or so)

    aptitude -t unstable dist-upgrade
    aptitude --target-release experimental install "?narrow(?installed, ?and(? archive(), ?maintainer(debian-qt-kde@lists.debian.org)))"

    Plasma session is definitely `wayland`.

    gpu is integrated intel.
    driver is kernel modesetting.

    Thanks,
    Chris
