I then have to press CTRL+ALT+F1 to get to a TTY (terminal) and run "sudo service lightdm restart then lightdm starts up just fine, this happens quite rarely. I have had lots of people looking at my logfiles on the official #ubuntu channel on IRC, but none have been able to give me a working solution I also posted my issue on Ubuntuforums, no one seems a to have any ideas. I have tried the following without any result: * Tried to reconfigure LightDM and unity-greeter with "sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm" and sudo dpkg-reconfigure unity-greeter. * Updating my Nvidia drivers with this ppa: http://ppa.launchpad.net/xorg-edgers/ppa/ubuntu * Asked on #Ubuntu (offiicial Ubuntu channel of course) and got the advices above. * Tried Googing around a bit, and searched this forum as well of course. I uploaded my logfiles here: Lightdm.log http://paste.ubuntu.com/6803029/ x-0.log http://paste.ubuntu.com/6803033/ x-0-greeter.log http://paste.ubuntu.com/6803040/ Xorg.0.log http://paste.ubuntu.com/6803176/y vi Here is some older logfiles as well. lightdm.log.old http://paste.ubuntu.com/6803030/ x-0.log.old http://paste.ubuntu.com/6803035/ x-0-greeter.log.old http://paste.ubuntu.com/6803040/ Xorg.0.log.old http://paste.ubuntu.com/6803185/ Just tell me if you need more logfiles :-) I'm using Ubuntu 13.10 (upgraded version) This issue was also present on Ubuntu 12.10 (fresh install).
