However, two recent upgrades have changed critical permissions that allow me to log in, probably for .Xauthority, .dmrc and/or .bashrc. The result was that twice, when I re-booted after an upgrade, my logon screen led me to a blank wallpaper with nothing working. (Logging in as a guest was fine.) When I got in through a rescue disk and attempted to copy files to a thumb drive, I discovered that random of my user-created /home/name subfiles had been assigned permissions that did not allow me to access them. ??? Anyway, I tried various CTL-ALT-1 fixes to re-set permissions from the Ubuntu web site. I tried changing the owner / permissions for just /home/ then just /home/name then a couple of suggestions that put the settings into "default" mode, including changing all /home/name dot-something folders to user +rwx. Nothing worked. Finally I just changed the entire /home/user folder to my ownership, +rwx recursively, and that worked.
