Cannot log into Cinnamon after deleting ~/.config












0















After I removed "./.config" from Home folder, I can not log in to the cinnamon session:



failed to load session "cinnamon"


What do I do?



xsession-error:



Xsession: X session started for tux at Fri Oct 26 06:35:58 IRST 2012
localuser:tux being added to access control list
Setting IM through im-switch for locale=en_US.
Start IM through /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/all_ALL linked to /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/default.
Failed to connect to the VirtualBox kernel service

I am runing Cinnamon on a local machine, no on Virtualbox. but virtualbox is installed for some usage.

  • I already disabled gnome-setting-daemon for problems in Mate and forgotten restore it to primary state, The problem solved with this: sudo mv /etc/xdg/autostart/gnome-settings-daemon.desktop.disabled /etc/xdtostart/gnome-settings-daemon.desktop

  • If that solved your problem you should add an answer that includes that information. That will help to make it easier to find, especially for newer users.
