For some reason on my System76 Bonobo, after a reboot, i try to login and I get a blinking cursor in the top left for a few seconds, than right back to the login screen. It SEEMS like lightdm crashes. I did several things, most of which are outlined in google searches and include reinstalling ubuntu-desktop package, resetting unity...etc. The strange part is that I can login to the guest account just fine. However, I can NOT login to a newly created account, same result as my account. I AM able to ctrl+alt+F1 and login, than startx. This gets me to an empty desktop with no launcher...etc. I am able to get the launcher back by using the compiz-configuration-manager app and choosing "Enable Ubuntu Unity Plugin", however, than I have an empty panel (no icons or date/time).

It seems like an audio issue, because when i finally am back in by doing startx and compiz reset, and goto system settings, i only see "Dummy output" as an option and have no audio. However, in the guest account it magically works (as everything does).

dmesg output:

You could check your driver for graphical card. I met almost same problem. I have tried repairing gnome-desktop-*, /etc/fstab , unity, compiz, lightdm, gdm ...nothing works. But when I use unity in terminal, it told me something wrong with fglrx. No such device. fglrx is an library package for optimization of ATI graphical card. My card is very old and can't match this driver. I should not install it at all. After I run sudo apt-get purge fglrx in tty and reboot, the desktop run up again!

So I suggest you check the driver for your graphical card. I saw something mismatch in the log. I hope it is helpful. Good luck!
