Title:
Cannot log into Unity, Gnome. Cannot launch GTK apps
Status in gnome-session package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
This is fresh Natty install with previos home partition. Root and home
partitions are on SSD. I have nVidia card.
After GDM is started it tries to log me in automatically as it is set
to. However it never reaches the desktop. All I get is Ubuntu
wallpaper and mouse cursor. By pressing Ctrl+Alt+Delete I get back
into GDM. The only session I can succesfully log into is the recovery
console.
I tried installing Unity-2D from PPA, after I logged into this session
the unity panels appeared for a while but they were blinking rapidly
only to disappear completelly after I tried eg. launch an application.
I installed nvidia-current.
I tried temporarily removing ~/.config folder but nothing changed.
I tried installing Xubuntu-desktop but the system would not deliver
anything but wallpaper either so I removed xubuntu* and xfce*
Finally installing Kubuntu-desktop I can log into Kubuntu session I am
in now in. However I cannot launch Firefox, Chromium, Nautilus so I
guess the problem is GTK or Gnome related.
Please ask for any additional files I can provide.
