Re: Can't get past login screen in Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx.
This thread saved my bacon. I was having almost exactly the problem described by the thread starter. Chief difference: I don't run Ubuntu through Wubi, but rather have a triple-boot configuration (Windows XP + Ubuntus 9.10 and 10.04).
I never messed with Evolution, but it seems that my gdm-session install must have been trashed, because the steps suggested here fixed the problem.
It's unsettling when stuff breaks for no apparent reason. I still haven't a clue how mine got broken. My 10.04 install is fixed now, but boy am I glad I kept my Ubuntu 9.10 install.
