I did a fresh install of CachyOS for my roommate and got his browser installed and all looked great. Was going to adjust Plasma’s settings, install the rest of his software, and do another tweaks needed today but come this morning and he’s having booting it to the OS. I finally got it up and running by powering down, turning off the monitor, powering up, turning the monitor on after about 3 seconds. From that point til landing on the login screen took about 4 minutes. Once on the desktop did a reboot and got the same result of about 4 minutes to boot. Once on the desktop all seems fine. Even with that I chose to roll the system back to the last snapshot that would of been from me yesterday. Even with that rollback still getting the extended boot time. I noticed that SDDM was replaced. I’m assuming with KDE’s new login manager. I have to wonder if it is the issue since before getting to the Cachy splash screen it sits on a screen with a small spinning circle on it for about a minute.

OK before I could lock down System Settings and other apps from either being launched or changed except by me, Gary managed to mess up a few things I had to fix. Don’t know what he did but in the process he managed to to accidentally get the boot time back to under a minute. Still see the spinning circle, but only for a quick second.
