@Rinzwind: That question deserves some explanation. To my eyes, it seems like it could possibly be meant for another question. :)

Yes, I installed hplip; the problem is not the printer. Some explanation: The full pop-up starting Oneiric-desktop-choice Gnome", or "Cinnamon" is: "No system tray detected on this system. Unable to start, exiting ."

In your start up programs there is a line regarding starting hplip
.
Change ...
sh -c "sleep 15; exec hp-systray"
to
sh -c "sleep 45; exec hp-systray"
and the problem is gone.
hplip
is expecting a system tray and that got removed (and was changed into notification area). All this does is postpone startup of hp-systray
so if your system is slow to respond this notice might come back and bite you again.
Found it here on Bugzilla (has a fix released
on 2011.11.25 (...)).
Besides the bug I found the following sources: Linuxquestions, Ubuntuforums
Thank ouy Rinzwind for your answer. BUT: where can I find that line in my Start-up programs "sh -c" etc.? I tried Grub, .hplip and the systray-itself,start-up programs.

I had this error on every boot on ubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver after installing the drivers for my HP printer.
I just deleted the file
/etc/xdg/autostart/hplip-systray.desktop
to get rid of the problem.

In the meantime open a terminal and login as root.
write in terminal:

Did you install hplip?

Yes, I installed hplip; the problem is not the printer. Some explanation: The full pop-up starting Oneiric-desktop-choice Gnome", or "Cinnamon" is: "No system tray detected on this system. Unable to start, exiting ."
