Do you use gdm3 or any other kind of display manager? Is the problem reproducible after a reboot or with a fresh user account? Could you attach your ~/.xsession-errors after a failed login attempt (you probably need to switch to CTRL+ALT+F1 and make a copy before you login again with some other WM, as it will be overwritten). Running gnome-session with "--debug" would be helpful, too. This will log much more details to ~/.xsession-errors. -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
