I upgraded my Ubuntu server from 12.04 to 13.04 a few months back. Something went wrong in the upgrade, and I haven't been able to use the desktop since. Login works, but desktop never loads properly, there's just an empty screen with a mouse pointer. I have tried re-installing ubuntu-desktop, resetting comzip settings, installing lubuntu-desktop and further upgrading to 13.10, but nothing has helped. It may well be that I have just managed to further mess the things up. Any ideas what to try, or should I just re-install from scratch?
