I tried that but without success I'm afraid. I also took the time from after pressing enter after entering my password until a full gnome desktop was up. It took 3 minutes and 10 seconds. I did that twice with the same result. I also remembered that I'm using the nvidia blob. I'll remove that, change the driver to the free one (nv) and see if it makes a difference. I could also try to reinstall if the nvidia blob does something naughty. Thank you for your time :)
