Since yesterday when I try to login, my screen turns into this beige Ubuntu color just with my mouse cursor. After a few second a white panel appears in the left top corner. Then nothing. When I tried to restart in de recovery mode -> try fix xserver I noticed that 3 packages failed while loading: [FAIL]. I was aible to read one failure: starting the winbind daemon winbind. I have been trying to configure my WLAN settings for the last days, so what went wrong?

Please help, because I am nowhere without a graphical interface.

Check your /var/log/messages and/or

dmesg | more
output and see if you can find any relevant error messages.

EXACTLY my problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=875456 btw, nobody in the forum has been able to solve it... yet, in my thread I found an alternative solution! Hope it helps you.

I found the solution myself. Something was wrong with /etc/network/interfaces, see https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/40913
