[Launchpad Bug Tracker <806408@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jean-Baptiste Lallement (jibel) has assigned this bug to you for xubuntu-default-settings in Ubuntu:

upgrade from up to date Xubuntu 11.04 to 11.10 on AMD64

The upgrade went fine, but after reboot and logging in, the session
doesn't start.

ProblemType: Bug
DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10
Package: lightdm 0.4.2-0ubuntu2
ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0-3.4-generic 3.0.0-rc5
Uname: Linux 3.0-3-generic x86_64
Architecture: amd64
Date: Wed Jul  6 12:34:25 2011
InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Release amd64 (20110427)
ProcEnviron:
 LANG=en_US.UTF-8
 SHELL=/bin/bash
SourcePackage: lightdm
UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to oneiric on 2011-07-06 (0 days ago)

WORKAROUND:
Users must select a session when logging in the first time. If no session is selected, the user will see the Ubuntu wallpaper, and nothing else. In this case, go to a tty using Ctrl+Alt+F2, login, and type 

sudo service lightdm restart

Now the user can login again, and select the session.
