Login Loop on Fedora 30 Mate Desktop

Hey. I checked Ask Fedora and realized many other have same problem like me. Sometimes when I try to login to my user, a blank screen appears (the one that after it user session comes) and it waits few seconds and then login screen reappears. I checked Ask Fedora but couldn’t find any answer to help myself.
Anybody with same problem on Mate desktop? Can you help please?

Collect the info about your system and video adapters:

hostnamectl
free -m
lspci -k -n -n | grep -A 3 -e VGA -e 3D

Detailed information about the problem would be helpful too:

    [alireza@alireza-pc ~]$ hostnamectl

It happened today again. 3 times login and long pause (about 10 -15 seconds).

I get this in middle of a long log

these are the ones colored in red.

It hasn’t happened since 2 days ago. I believe it happened because of hostname change.
