Xubuntu stuck after login
- by viraptor
How can I debug an issue with Xubuntu 12.04 (fresh install) which just waits idle after a login for about 30 seconds?
The login screen is delayed correctly. After login, I get my desktop background, but no panels or auto-starting apps.
It doesn't seem to be an authentication/pam issue, because I can login without delay at the console while the graphical session is still stuck. There's no disk or cpu activity and no obvious respawning of any process when I look at htop. There's nothing obviously wrong in .xsession-errors. Most interesting errors:
openConnection: connect: No such file or directory
cannot connect to brltty at :0

Bootchart seems to end before I login, so it's not that helpful.
Where else can I look for information?
