when you have a prompt you can check the pemissions with:
# ls -l /
you'll then see something like:
drwxr-xr-x ... /tmp
there are three sets of permissions, first the owner of the file/directory then
the group then everyone else.
if everyone can write it will read:
drwxrwxrwx .../tmp
you
can you log in as root?
then type the following into a terminal
# chmod 777 /tmp
if you can't log in as root (because for instance no root password is set),
i suggest booting into single user/recovery mode
you'll then get a root prompt where you'll be able to change the permissions
if you don't
Had the same problem on a fresh karmic 64 bit.
.xsession-errors gave:
/etc/gdm/Xsession: Beginning session setup...
mkdtemp: private socket dir: Permission denied
solved it by changing the permissions for /tmp
