I'm facing a weird problem now. Unable to login to the desktop and use the GUI. This problem is somewhat similar to Not able to login through the GUI but there weren't any autologon system enabled.
I do can login as root in the GUI and see the desktop, also there is no problem in login via tty2 for the user! So that means the account is active, not locked account and has a login shell assigned in /etc/passwd. I tried changing the passwd, did passwd -U username
but all went futile.
Here is the output of `/var/log/secure
