I upgraded to Jaunty recently, using the default Gnome configuration, and now whenever I start up, the login screen won't let me pass. Here's what happens:
1. The login screen comes up.
2. I enter my username and password, as usual.
3. The login screen asks for my username again, as if nothing had happened. This goes on forever.
If I enter the wrong username or password, the login screen tells me that I've got the wrong password. But if I type them in correctly, it just repeats the question.
This happens no matter what session type (Gnome, KDE, Failsafe Terminal, etc.) I choose.
Any suggestions?
