forced to log in to failsafe
ok, here is a problem that I occasionally have (out of a variety of causes)
when I try to log in, it has a blank desktop with a terminal [and possibly another terminal and Firefox in some cases]. No panels or other things are found on Desktop. if I go back to the login screen, no longer are the installed desktops like GNOME and KDE available (I have not remove them) to be chosen at the sessions.
Now is there some generic way of troubleshooting this? [I am sure some of the (less than proper, especially for people who are not familiar with Linux) sequence handling lockups/freezes may lead to this so if these are put on the wiki sections it would be helpful.]
