I had run following commands from terminal as the unity launcher and manu bar were missing, as given in Ubuntu 16.04 Unity No desktop just background wallpaper.

Commands:

sudo rm -fr ~/.cache/compizconfig-1

sudo rm -fr ~/.compiz

sudo rm -fr ~/.Xauthority

sudo rm -fr ~/.config/autostart

sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop unity compizconfig-settings-manager upstart

sudo dconf reset -f /org/compiz/

setsid unity

The manu bar appeared but not launcher. I rebooted my system but can't login to my session. When I login, the screen gets black and soon after that the login screen comes back. But the Guest session works perfectly (with launcher and manu bar) and I got the error

unity-scope-loader crashed with sigabrt in g_assertion_message()

while using guest session.

In TTY when I logging in I'm getting message:

No directory, logging in with HOME=/

To run a command as administrator (user "root"), use "sudo <"command>".

Does this massage normally appear in TTY?

Now:

  • There is no .Xauthority file in my home (I have removed it)
  • First 10 letters read exactly drwxrwxrwt on running ls -ld /tmp.
  • sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm didn't work (can't run without sudo)

  • When I type: dconf reset -f /org/compiz/ It says:

    error: Cannot autolaunch D-Bus without X11 $DISPLAY

  • I tried sudo lightdm. It says:

    The system is running in low-graphics mode

    Intel graphics is used in my computer.

Please advise on any way I can login to my session.
