No (graphical) login possible.
I updated 14.04. Thereafter, when I try to log in the screen turns briefly black and then comes back to the login screen. No message about invalid passwords and such. /var/log/messages holds no "failure".
Where do I even look for a hint about the problem -- or even better a solution ;)? |

Hmm, thanks but I doubt this will help (can't try it right now, not at home).
Reason: the problem affects two users. A third can log in. I issued an "apt-get update" and "apt-get upgrade" frome there which ran without errors. The problem for the otheres is still there, though. But I'll try it as soon as possible. |
so check ~/.xsession-errors and /var/log/Xorg.0.log
|
You were right, there were lots of permission denied errors in xsessions-errors. After some more discussions in German forums I got this link:
http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Homeverze...te-korrigieren I issued all 4 commands, things are as they should be again :). One or several blasted pieces of software changed a few permissions in my /home directory tree. Problem solved, thanks to all participants here. |
glad to help you
(if you really want to say thanks just click on yes) |
