Title:
  Login screen reloads itself repeatedly

Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-session

  It's an upgraded 10.04 from 9.10.

  Everything was fine until I ran gnome-session in terminal (I
  originally wanted to run gnome-session-save) and I got an error and
  then dozens of windows were generated in the task bar that I had to
  logout. I was able to input name and password and it seemed the system
  accepted them, but after two or three seconds I was brought to the
  login screen again.

  The issue is reproducible to all desktop types, KDE, gnome, and xterm.

  I can't remember if I ran 'gnome-session' in root privilege.

  There's no problem about the disk usage, all below 40%.

  I worked out a workaround to login to gnome desktop though, switch to
  console and then run following commands:

  sudo service gdm stop
  startx

  Thanks.
