Hmm, you might want to check your apt history to see if something got
updated in the background that is causing the problem.

This morning for the first time ubuntu 12.04 LTS wouldn't start.
Here are the details.
My desktop PC has 2 drives: a 500GB HD and a 256GB SSD. Ubuntu 12.04
is installed on the SSD and Debian 6.0 is installed on the HD. Up
until now both worked well: Debian still works well.
When I boot to Ubuntu the system gets to the point where the wallpaper
to be used for the desktop is displayed together with a small window
asking for user name and password. When I enter the password I get
the message ' Failed to load session "cairo-dock" ' and a log out
button is displayed. I get the same response when I try the other log
in options available in the small window.
I then started in recovery mode and tried: fsck, clean, dpkg(fix
broken packages) and grub(update boot loader). None of these had any
effect.
I would be grateful for advice.
