Title:
Desktop fails to load after login (displays tiled backgrounds)
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Was originally running 14.04-desktop in a VmWare Fusion v5-Pro guest.
Ran fine for quite a while. A certain update a few months ago
introduced an issue where I could no longer log in graphically. The
guest console would present a normal login after boot, but attempting
to log in causes the screen to display a tiled background and a
failure to present any UI components. Ssh access remains accessible,
so it seems to be purely a graphical desktop problem.
Anyway, I have since tried many things, including ensuring I had the
latest updates, reinstalling unity, upgrading to 14.10, and upgrading
Fusion to v7-Pro. The result is exactly the same. I will attach a
screenshot.
To be fair, I do not know for sure this is a unity bug. But it is my
best guess.
