After latest updates (2014-02-05) it is again worse.
In order to bypass flickering login screen and then desktop I startup Ubuntu
Advanced and recovery mode and then continue to login -> then no flickering but
now also no gnome-panel and no menus.
Ctrl-Alt-t gives terminal from where I can run FF and TB etc. and eventually
sudo shutdown -h now ...when I need it / if I need it.
{I have added some hardware info on my site link above ... for those interested}
This is not nice....
How can I start the menus again in flashback? gnome-panel gets my panel at
least up.

Title:
Pre-Ubuntu 13.10 user (with cjkv) can not login with lightdm (ibus)
Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
The best description I can give is on this link.
https://sites.google.com/site/pcproblemdoctor/linux
(sorry for the link) I have tried again to recreate the old user danie but
still same problem -
session=gnome-fallback in stead of ubuntu in .dmrc
and run_im still has cjkv
(apart from not driver=radeon? and flickering with mouse movement and window
update)
1) 'lsb_release -rd' = 13.10
2) 'apt-cache policy lightdm' = 1.8.4-0ubuntu
3) Expected to happen: Login to user account with GUI (lightdm)
4) What happened instead: Can only login with very old (pre-12.10) other user
accounts or new user accounts.
