I have lubuntu 12.04, and it was working fine until I installed something and I do not remember exactly what I installed because I was trying to build a ruby gem and it required a lot.
now I rebooted and I cannot log in, well, I can but when I do LXDE apparently cannot continue and returns to the login screen.
I created another user from my console screen (I can login there), and the other user
I have the same issue as others (see Login returns to login screen [closed]).
When I arrived at the login screen, I enter my password, the screen goes black for one second, displaying some text, and then it returns me to a fresh login screen.
I can go to a console alt+f1 and login into my account on the command line.
It is a fairly fresh install of ubuntu 12.04 64 bit, plenty of room left on th
I recently installed Solaris 10 as a VM. I was using the JDS and shut down the vm when I left the office. When I rebooted today I login in at the desktop login screen and press ok but I am reverted to the console screen for a spilt second and then back to the login screen. I log in as root and my password is correct because I am not met with an incorrect login error.
I just did a clean install of 11.3 over my dual boot xp/11.2 system and kept my home directory. When I booted the system a console box came up. I then disabled auto login and rebooted. The login screen showed two users, 1- Tom and 2- Root. When I login as Tom the console comes up and when I boot into Root the GUI KDE system comes up.
Ok, I installed Xubuntu 11.10 on my Toshiba Satalite C50 dual booted with windows 7. After that I eventually installed the KDE desktop and the Lubuntu Desktop after KDE. When I rebooted the boot screen said lubuntu instead of Xubuntu and the login screen is now the lubuntu login screen instead of the xubuntu one.
Here is my problem, I can't seen to get past the Lubuntu login screen.
I feel my problem started after in did the updates and rebooted today.
I can't get out of the KDE login screen except for Console which works.
In Console, I effectively changed root and user passwords and rebooted to no avail.

Hi,
I have wubi installed. It was working sluggish so I rebooted. Now, in the login screen I get a message:Install problem

And it is impossible to login. I can always login in console mode as root (recovery).
I installed fedora a few hours ago. But when I rebooted (for the first time) and tried logging in, the computer freezes for a second, shows a blank black screen and then returns me to the login menu. I can, however, login when I choose recovery mode from grub.
I am unable to get past the login screen. It won't accept passwords, the screen momentarily goes black, and then returns to the login screen.
I recently found out that you can use CTRL-ALT-F1 to switch from the login screen to the command line. My password works in that situation and I was able to enter terminal mode.
I typed in "startx" to see what would happen.
