It's possible according to this article and the basic steps are as follows:

  1. Log out of your session.
  2. Press CTRL+ALT+F1 in unison.
  3. Log in to your account at the prompt.
  4. Run the following command very very very very very carefully: –

    mkdir gnome_backup; mv .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity gnome_backup/
    

    or if that doesn’t work

    rm .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity -rf
    
  5. Return to the login screen by pressing CTRL+ALT+F7.

There are a number of caveats though as you will be initially logging out of your account so heed the advice and print out the detailed instructions before proceeding with caution.
