[snip] I had a really weird problem that, perhaps, it has something to do with yours. After reading this: http://notes.torrez.org/2013/04/put-a-burger-in-your-shell.html I thought "hey, that's a cool idea", so I put a unicode character in my PS1 environment variable. Afterwards, I was unnable to log into GNOME; it took me several hours to link the PS1 variable to the problem, since I did the change inside of GNOME, and I didn't logout until I upgraded. I removed the PS1 override, and everything just worked again. So, just to discard this particular case, you should check your environment variables.
