Hi,
I have manjaro with xfce and I have a weird behavior when I boot.
Indeed, at the beginning, in the ~30 first second, My mouse is stuck like my firefox and other things while ~1 second. Then a second time few moments after the first one. And that’s all, after the second time, all is ok. so it’s not a critical problem but I would like to fix it. I don’t know how to start to seach
My first impression is that the system is busy finishing loading the startup services and first-launched applications.
Is there a way to list the applications loaded at the boot ?
I can try to remove ones to see if manjaro can launch without freeze
For system processes : systemctl list-unit-files --state=enabled
For user processes : systemctl --user list-unit-files --state=enabled
For desktop processes : xfce:xfce4-session:preferences [Xfce Docs]
Thanks for the tips 
I’ll try tomorrow, I’ll say you if it works for me
I removed skype (with your third method), but firefox and other applications still start at the boot and I don’t know how to remove theim

Did you set to save the session on logout?
https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-session/preferences#general
I deactivated this option to see if this is the root of the problem. Without success
What about the application restart settings?
https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-session/preferences#session
It’s ok, I have no application at boot. But I have the same behavior. I tried to boot and then to stay on my desktop (without start any desktop application). I move my mouse only but I have always the same thing, it is stuck after few moments while 1 sec then a second time ~30 seconds after.
I had linux mint before Manjaro and I didn’t have this behavior (and I have a dual boot with windows 10, no problem with it). Is it possible there is a problem with my installation ? How to check that ?
