This morning for the first time ubuntu 12.04 LTS wouldn't start. Here are the details.
My desktop PC has 2 drives: a 500GB HD and a 256GB SSD. Ubuntu 12.04 is installed on the SSD and Debian 6.0 is installed on the HD. Up until now both worked well: Debian still works well. When I boot to Ubuntu the system gets to the point where the wallpaper to be used for the desktop is displayed together with a small window asking for user name and password. When I enter the password I get the message ' Failed to load session "cairo-dock" ' and a log out button is displayed. I get the same response when I try the other log in options available in the small window. I then started in recovery mode and tried: fsck, clean, dpkg(fix broken packages) and grub(update boot loader). None of these had any effect. I would be grateful for advice. Robin
