I had the same problem on my Xubuntu 12.04 too, but only for new created
accounts, not for my existing one. After some hours of trial and error
I've got the one file, which made the difference: It was
~/.cache/sessions/xfce4-session-MYCOMPUTERNAME:0 . So simply saving the
desktop session once solve
Because I had a very similar problem, I just worked through your
attachment. Some remarks:
* First I think, the relevant booting disk is sdd2, not sdb, as you
wrote. Neither sdb1/boot/grub/menu.lst nor sdb1/boot/grub/grub.cfg
contains entries refering to a OS on sdh, but sdd2/boot/grub/grub.cfg
do
