Desktop takes a long time to show up after booting up
On certain machines with old Intel graphic chips, it may take a relatively long time (can be up to a few minutes) for the desktop to show up, after an apparently successful text-mode boot up.
There are many possible causes for this, but one of the most frequent one is because the kernel driver is trying to activate the S-VIDEO interface, which in reality may not even be connected to anything in your machine.
To fix this, you need to tell the kernel to disable S-VIDEO interface. This is done by putting the following boot parameter: video=SVIDEO-1:d
in your boot loader entry.

[drm:drm_atomic_helper_wait_for_flip_done [drm_kms_helper]] *ERROR* [CRTC:41:pipe B] flip_done timed out
Then add the kernel boot parameter: video=SVIDEO-1:d, so it will look like this: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=“quiet splash video=SVIDEO-1:d”
note that the above seems to have worked… 5-16-18
