Since an update a couple of days ago, I have the same symptoms. I log in normally, the desktop appears (with icons) but nothing else. With right mouse click I can open a terminal, but windows have no borders and no menus.
I removed my ~/.config/dconf and .config/compiz-1 and checked my .XAuthority permissions, but the problem subsists. My .xsession-errors only contain this: openConnection: connect: No such file or directory cannot connect to brltty at :0 I'm running Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS HTH Fernando -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1285444 Title: Login Successful, Desktop Never Loads To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/at-spi2-core/+bug/1285444/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
