[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1343905@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This bug was fixed in the package upstart - 1.12.1-0ubuntu4.2

---------------
upstart (1.12.1-0ubuntu4.2) trusty; urgency=medium

  * Safe guard against SESSIONTYPE-less sessions. (LP: #1343905)

upstart (1.12.1-0ubuntu4.1) trusty; urgency=medium

  [ James Hunt ] LP: #1317727
  * debian/manpages/upstart-events.7: Correction for 'rotate-logs'.
  * debian/upstart.cron.daily: Specify full path to initctl.
  * init/man/init.8: Add missing information on '--chroot-sessions'.
  * debian/upstart.apport: Sort system and session jobs.

  [ Iain Lane ]
  * xsession-init: Set $GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID if we are launching a
    gnome-session session. Some applications (Qt4) require this to be set to
    any value to detect the environment in use. It was historically set by
    gnome-session but now this is no longer the root of the session so not all
    user processes are guaranteed to have it. (LP: #1305294)

  [ Dimitri John Ledkov ]
  * Cherrypick reboot command fix to not process REBOOTCOMMAND argument
    when in runlevels 2-5 and without using force flag. (LP: #1174272)

Bug description:
  Recently I've setup fresh Xubuntu 14.04 and upgraded system to current
  state. After reboot and logon to system I've got empty desktop and
  mouse pointer with no panels and icons. Alt+F2 and similar key
  combinations didn't work. Switching to console by Ctrl+Alt+F1 worked.
  After short investigation I've downgraded upstart to version
  1.12.1-0ubuntu4 and rebooted. Now everything works as expected.

  The .xsession-errors log form empty desktop session attached
