Log in Failure

[ipozya]

Hello everyone,

I recently installed Fedora 14 and have been very pleased with how everythin has been running. Unexpectedly, however, I was logged out of Fedora and have been unable to log back in since. When this happened, I was looking at the XFCE themes in preferences; I received a black screen and was then logged out (I believe that part of the error message read "buinit," although it passed very quickly so I may be wrong).

Now every time I try to log in, the system tries for a few second, the screen goes black, and then it reverts to the same log in screen (with no error messages). Anyone know what may be the cause of this problem?

Although I believe that it is unrelated, I updated the kernel approximately 30 minutes prior to this happening (2.6.35.10-74.fc14.x86_64 from ....10-72....). The system worked fine after the upgrade and I was logged out abruptly when using the computer, so I do not think that this is the source of the problem. I have tried starting the older kernel version from GRUB and am now still getting this same issue.

I would appreciate any help. Thank you!

Using the theme "wildbush" caused XFCE to crash. edited ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfwm4.xml to use theme "nodoka"
