I upgraded from 11.04 to 12.04 and when it was all finished i couldn't login unless i went in as a guest.
So following a lot of pages on here i deleted the ~/Xauthority
High seemed to work.
However just before that i also ran sudo chmod -R $USER:$USER $HOME
Now after I've entered my password i get a small terminal window appear in the top left with me logged in.
I can't seem to find anything around this. Any ideas?
I can't help but think I've set all the files to something they shouldn't all be.
~/.xsession-errors
? And/var/log/Xorg.0.log
? You can mount a USB stick using this instructions and copying the files just withcp /var/log/Xorg.0.log /media/usb/
.
