I'm running 14.04.3 on a ASUS Netbook X201E. Today, I was'nt able to login to my account. lightdm starts abnormally. The top bar is'nt displayed. After attempting to log in with correct password (tested, if incorrect password reply works), pixel errors appearing and the login screen comes up again. Guest login doesn't wrk either. Networking, ssh access etc. works.
I purged and reinstalled lightdm, then I installed and started gdm. Problem persists. Guest login worked once but displayed a Low graphics mode warning window, but this was'nt readable. Only got some orange tick boxes appearing when hovering the mouse. This issue also appeared several times during the last couple of days after logging in to unity.

Excerpt from lightdm.0.crash containing errors, which seems relevant to me:
(gtk-update-icon-cache-3.0:12099): GdkPixbuf-WARNING **: Cannot open pixbuf loader module file '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache': Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
This likely means that your installation is broken.
Try running the command
gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders > /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gdk-pixbuf- 2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache
to make things work again for the time being.

Shall I update my video drivers? Already added ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates.
Help would be much appreciated!
