Same problem for me. I need to start the window manager with metacity --replace &
after login. The file ~/.xsession-errors seems to have some errors that look like they may be connected to the problem, so I attached it. (I suppose I turned on the mild version of visual effects called "Normal" in my german ubuntu). ** Attachment added: ".xsession-errors" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/48315025/.xsession-errors -- Window manager not started after login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/538964 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
