Public bug reported:
lightdm authenticates and logs in a user and a session is created but the screen hangs there forever. Same for the guest user. I am able to login from the other text terminals. unity --replace results in WARNING: no DISPLAY variable set, setting it to :0 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/unity", line 207, in <module> run_unity (options.verbose, options.debug, options.advanced_debug, options.compiz_path, args, options.log) File "/usr/bin/unity", line 129, in run_unity subprocess.call(["stop", "unity-panel-service"]) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 522, in call return Popen(*popenargs, **kwargs).wait() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 710, in __init__ errread, errwrite) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1335, in _execute_child raise child_exception OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory sudo unity --replace starts compiz and unity with reduced functionality i.e no applets or system bar and dbus errors.
