Yep. This machine got stuck in this state few more times while i

And it does seems like this happens if you try to login too fast. I
dont think it hanged even once if i waited on login screen for a
minute or more, but when i typed password immediately it has a
decent chance to stuck.
Still, this only happens on one out of four PCs i updated to jessie
since release. And no matter how i look i cant comprehend whats
different in this one.
I wonder if its hardware related. I upgraded a friends machine and he
doesn't have this problem. His machine, mother board wise is AMD
based, while mine is intel based. We both have mother boards with
built in graphic cards and both have the same Nvidia external AGP
graphic cards. But I think that there are to many differences to be
able to speculate.
It doesnt look like its hardware related. All my machines have AMD CPU's.
The one which exhibits this have AMD video, but one of others have AMD video
too. This behavior happens both with radeon and fglrx drivers. Also this is
not systemd related as someone suggested early because i left this one on
sysv-init.
Also i tried to monitors what happens when it gets stuck - apparently at
one point in tde startup process two kdesktop process started, one finishes
almost instantly and other goes to sleep. When it stuck the second process
doesnt finish and just sits here. If you kill it (the one which is not in
Sl state) tde stratup would proceeds into half-functioning tde session
(kicker related stuff works, but desktop is not loaded and background
remains from startup. Apparently some other services do not start too
because its complains when you try to logout)

Ironically right after writing previous message i encountered
this behavior on the first boot into jessie on the next machine
i updated. But it was fixed by restarting tdm-trinity.
Unfortunately that hasn't worked for me :-)
What I find interesting is having to wait and then reentering my
password after which everything works Ok. Even root behaves the
same. There is something that has to complete before I / you can
login.
