Public bug reported:
I unintentionally changed permissions of the files in root directory.
Hence I'm seeing login issues.
I'm Unable to login from 'ctrl+alt+l' or Screen lock after normal 'Power Save'.
On entering the correct password the machine fails to unlock.
I Need to click 'Switch User' & then the screen takes to main login screen,
where on entering the password, the login succeeds
