Having the ssh option is always a must.

Logs I would look at: /var/log/syslog, /var/log/messages, dmesg and your ~/.xsession-errors.log But Lina, if you're running unstable the problem can have many sources: a bug in a package, a package not updated, a kernel soft lock, an X problem... so first, I would try to login with no X (init 1) and check if things go better in there.
