I've just upgraded my ubuntu (raring to saucy) and I now can't log in to GNOME. As opposed to virtual consoles (Ctrl-Alt-F1, for example). I set it up to log in automatically. But it asks for password now. I type in the password, press Enter, the screen blinks and here I am again at the login screen. Then I looked into /var/log/Xorg.0.log:

I did more installing/removing packages than that. There were a moment when it said:

(EE) Failed to load /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/libglamoregl.so: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/libglamoregl.so: undefined symbol: _glapi_tls_Context

Also there is init: not found in ~/.xsession-errors:

/usr/sbin/lightdm-session: 5: exec: init: not found

Actually, I'm out of ideas. What about you? :)
