Same here, but not quite. Loaded the usual updates yesterday evening, everything seemed fine. This morning I found the login screen resetting every time I click either my own username or the 'other user' option. It is certainly not X crashing and coming back, since the rest of the desktop stays intact. I do not see any messages about authentication failure or other errors, the login window just disapears and comes back within a second. And that's all I'm getting.
I can switch to a text-mode console with Ctrl-Alt-F1 and loging there, but can't kill and restart X from there. Probably lack of command knowledge on my part but still. Effectively this locks me out of my system, since I do need to used the GUI and apps. In case you're wondering how I got here: rebooted into Winblows XP..... :-(( cheers Tom -- lucid lynx - login screen stuck in a loop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/516520 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
