I couldn't log in to my user account. When I tried it the screen returned to the log in screen. I am able to log in using ctrol alt f1 or an new created account, but not my own. Also rm /.Xautority doent work. Could someone type some log files the error could be in?

You can try start system in recovery mode:

How can I start in safe mode?

Also, if you don`t mind , you might install gnome-session , for example:

sudo apt-get install cairo-dock

and change session to login

  • after choosing cario-dock filling my password and pressing enter my ubuntu waited in a screen witch hasn't the log in field or anything. the only thing I could do was moving the mouse and switching to another tty. – kees broeksma Mar 23 '15 at 18:53
  • @keesbroeksma Have you tried start system in safe mode ? It usually say it is read only , but once you are able to log in there are another options to try to solve regular log in . – E_Angel Mar 23 '15 at 19:32
