Linux Mint 13 uses the new login manager - MDM. According to the official site of Linux Mint, MDM has more features than any other login manager currently available but I am not so sure about that because I sincerely dont care much about the login managers.

Since Ubuntu 9.10, installing new login screen themes or changing the login window appearances is not as easy as before.
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.
