Thanks in advance for any help. Ubuntu 12.04
Up until recently my mother has been using the Guest Session when she logs on; now, the Guest Session will not login.
I am using Ubuntu 11.10 which was working fine till today.
If I try to login using one of my user accounts it directs me back to the login screen, which is followed by a black screen.
I am sure the password I enter is correct because if the password is wrong it prompts "Invalid Password".
On the other hand I am able to login using a root or guest account.

Login screen won’t accept my password
My computer crashed earlier this evening, I think it was somewhat overheated and shut itself down.
After this, I can no longer log into Ubuntu.
When I attempt to log into my account the screen goes black and then falls back to the login screen. I have pressed CTRL+ALT+F1 and was able to log in from there, however when I tried startx I got an error from x.org (I will try to write it down in a minute). The guest account works flawlessly so I am currently logged into that and created a temporary admin account through the settings panel.
Good afternoon,
I recently updated my 10.04 release and then had a problem with the graphics card so I updated a little more and now have 12.04 which I'm fine with except that when I get to the login screen I can login as a guest and a secondary accout I have, but not as the main, administrator account.
Hello!
I´ve been using Ubuntu 11.10 for a couple of months without any problem. However i´m now unable to log in. It happened after i installed Sophos Antivirus. The system got awfully slow after the installation so i tried to shut my laptop down. The system then refused to shut down (nothing happened) so i performed a hard reset.
I did a manual update of my nvidia geforce 560 card from 304 to 310. The display was sporadically going blank for a few seconds, so I thought a driver update would resolve that issue. Everything went well, except now when I log in as my normal self, the login screen goes blank like it is trying to log me into my normal environment, and poof, I'm back at the login screen.
