I have installed vsftpd and did some commands in terminal like chown root:root /home/myusername. And the next time I started my computer i could not log in as usual. An error message that erupts which says Could not update ICEauthority. PLZ HELP ME I'm stuck with this. I used this link for vsftpd install.

You will need to start Ubuntu in safe mode, then from the terminal issue this command:

chown myusername:myusername /home/myusername

Change myusername for your actual user name, of course. The problem looks like you make your home dir owned by root.
