[Bug 1503784] [NEW] can only log in with another admin account. my old admin account doesnt show any desktop symbols at all. now the second admin account has starting problems too is not completing start up.. stays with the start screen and doesnt continue..system seems up to date with the ubuntu provided updates.

 

Public bug reported:

in may the first prob occured with my one and only admin account. no desktop symbol showed up anymore so that you can only logg in but not shut down or anything else without ending the session per terminal command and write log off.. over the guest account we created a second admin account to safe all my data and continued. but actually didnt have the knowledge to fix the first issue permanently. now the second admin account is not even starting.. and the system seems extremly slowed down.
i would really very much appreciate any help of you.
thanks a lot beforehand for any reply or help provided.

the problem is presumably located in the following package LightDM.
