Currently, as of 22 September, with the latest updates this problem
doesn't seem to occur anymore. I can have Compiz enabled and use session

GNOME session freezes to black
nainu, thank you for your comment. Disabling the desktop effects and
disabling AddARGBGLXVisuals (not sure if both are necessary or just
disabling desktop effects is enough) in my xorg.conf allowed me to log
in normally to the GNOME session.
The xsession-errors file which I attached also lists an
Hmm, ok. I did not know how to provide debugging information for this
bug because the crash happens when I log in. I have used GDB in the past
to provide backtraces, but AFAIK there is no way to start GDB or
something like that to get a backtrace before I log in, or is there?

Thank you for your reply, but could you please go into more details
instead of giving a standard answer? I don't understand, if this
freezing at login is not intended behavior how can it not be a bug?

I had the idea that I was describing this bug as clearly as possible to
get it fixed as a consequence, and that getting it fixed would help me
getting my system working again. To be clear, I certainly was trying to
write a bugreport, not a help request. Writing a good bugreport was my
intention,

you didn't describe a sequence of action leading to the bug on an

issue without those details

Is your loopback network interface correctly configured? Does ping

Thanks for your comments. This does not appear to be a bug report as
such. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but it would make
more sense to raise your question in the support tracker.

I created another user and tried to log in to the GNOME session with
that user. That worked. However, if I try to log out with that other
user, the system freezes (similar to what I experienced with my normal
user, as I described previously), and it displays the desktop wallpaper

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. Does it works fine if you log in with another new created
user?
