<pre class="k9mail">Hi all,<br /><br />I run my laptop on ubuntu 14. Last night there were some automatic software updates from ubuntu, so I installed them, however, now I am unable to login via the gui. I can get to a console login using ctrl+alt+f1 and then login with my normal username and password, but whenI attempt to login via the gui, the X seems to crash and then bounce me back to the login screen. <br /><br />Has anyone else seen this problem? I've been googling for an answer- there was a suggestion that it might be related to permissions on my .Xauthority file, but my user already has ownership permissions on that file. Any thoughts on what might have gone wrong? <br /><br />thanks heaps all,<br /><br />David Buddrige<br /><br />Sent from my iPhone<br /><hr /><br />PLUG discussion list: plug@plug.org.au<br /><a href="http://lists.plug.org.au/mailman/listinfo/plug">http://lists.plug.org.au/mailman/listinfo/plug</a><br />Committee e-mail: committee@plug.org.au<br />PLUG
