I am trying to track down & fix an issue that I have had for months. After I enter my password the screen just shows that desktop background/wallpaper. The mouse is there and it will move but no panels or icons. It remains like this for ~3 minutes and then panels, icons, ... all appear and I can do work.
I can switch to a terminal (Ctrl-Shift-F1) & login but there is not something that is obviously waiting. Any clues or suggestions as to what to examine ? Not a huge impact since I tend to remain logged in for weeks at a time. But I would like to fix. I am running Debian 13 - Trixie using the Mate desktop. The same thing happened with Debian 12.
