After updating my 64 bigt Arch system to latest stable releases, I began to have problems with logind services timing out and allowing me to have only one console available to work with. it seems that when I have ntpdate running and use netctl to auto start my wireless profile, these problems occur. When I disable ntpdate.service, then I seem to get my consols back and logind appears to be working OK. I also experienced similar problems when I was trying out netctl-ifplugd with my wired connections. If the cable was plugged in, then all started right up just fine but if I unplugged the cable and rebooted, then the above stated problems also wold occur. Up until today, I was not having these problems. I can't seem to pin down the exact cause of these issues but these began to happen after experimenting with a more dynamic network setup. My ultimate goal is to have both netctl-ifplugd and netctl-auto both running and then I can have the flexibility of switching to a cabled connection if necessary and be able to also dynamically pick up whatever WIFI service I come into. I read the Arch wiki pages about networking so I have most of that working presuably OK now except for these logind issues. How could networking delays cause all the timing problems with logind.service?
