Some folk are experiencing a greeter problem.
When one logins, the greeter will say, "Logging in..." but it never does so
and simply stays on that screen.
In looking at what's going on, it would seem that ubuntu-tweak may have a
role to play in that situation... but we can't be sure.
It would seem that reverting to gdm is a solution.
Please look at those posts and if there is info that we can provide, I'm sure
that those who have posted will do so.
