It was an upgrade from 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) to 10.10 (Maverick
Meerkat). Sorry for the wrong l...

The update crashed. Here is what happened afaik:
- gdm/window-manager or session crashed.
- restart or new gdm session on F8 possible without window-manager(!)
- The update python script takes 99-100% of CPU time. It doesn't spawn children 
(no dpkg etc.) After 12 hours I reboot.
- X starts but does not show the login dialog. :-(
- reboot to restricted: stops after 2 seconds without prompt or consoles. :-(
- reboot from USB (jaunty with luks and xts by hand!) chroot to system.
- apt-get install -f; dpkg --configure -a; aptitude
- boot 2.6.35-24-generic: gdm shows login; looks much better

Still to solve: 
- default user still without automatic start of mutter
- new test user has automatically mutter
- I suspect gconf data. But which?
Any hints?
