Hi Joss, do you see anything particular in your ~/.gnome-errors? This might help track your problem to its cause. You can also try to see if any particular messages are logged during your logging in using something like
"grep -hr 'May 12 17:3' * | sort | uniq | less" in the directory /var/log as root. (You have to change 'May 12 17:3' to some time range in which the problem appeared.)
