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 have single user grub entry, edit the existing grub entry by typing 'e' and add 'single' tot the line with the kernel and boot with 'b' -- There is a problem with the configuration server.
