@Madd00x It looks like you are logging in as root on your desktop environment, that's not very smart to do. Create a unprivileged/normal user and login with that user to see if that makes a difference?

Silly question....perhaps.....Is your system totally updated ?

In your xsession-errorr output I see several variables referring to root including this one.

dbus-update-activation-environment: setting XAUTHORITY=/root/.Xauthority

When I do the same and log into a Cinnamon session, I see this for that variable.
Code: 
dbus-update-activation-environment: setting XAUTHORITY=/home/tux/.Xauthority
Can you login, open a terminal and share the output of the following command?
Code: 
env | egrep -i "logname|user|home|pwd"

That network wait is a long time, but I'm not sure if you can actually disable that and have it change anything. You can try masking it.

Also, what's the output from just plain systemd-analyze?

(I don't know/have a fix, I am mostly digging for information that may click with someone else.)
 
Well, many thanks to all of you, but i did a new installation and everything work fine.
Have a nice day/eve/morning (depend where you live).
 
Weird but I'm glad it's a good outcome!
