I am on ubuntu 14.04
, I have 8 GB of RAM
, Intel Core i5 processor
.
after installing ubuntu14.04
, I installed eclipse
and few more software,
When I restated it, I am not able to see my user account. my user account is gone, the only thing is left is guest account and I have not set any password for guest.
when I click in guest account, the screen turns black and the login screen appears again. I tried multiple times but no result.
This is not the first time.its been third time I have installed ubuntu14.04 within two days and I am facing the same problem again and again.
- Is there any problem with ubuntu 14.04?
- Should I install other version of ubuntu or other version of linux?
- Which is best version of Linux for software development(java web
application)?

Your lightdm is corrupt probably. Press Ctrl + Alt + F1 to enter the CLI mode and log into it. you can try
sudo dpkg --configure -a
If it doesn't work,
sudo apt-get install gdm
and set it as your default manager (more of a workaround)
