GUI is not showing up after logging in

  • 772

I removed pulseaudio and alsa-base. I think some of the gnome ui packages were dependent on those two and are removed. So now, after a restart, when I log in it goes in and logs out automatically.

What should I install? Here is a picture of my screen before logging in. Note that the title bar of the wifi connection window is not showing up. I think if I solve this it should resolve the issue. enter image description here

  1. Try reinstalling alsa, pulseaudio, and check to make sure gnome-session is installed. If it is, try reinstalling it.

  2. I don't know whether the missing pulseaudio and alsa-base packages are the problem, but to reinstall them you can just switch to a TTY at GUI login with Ctrl+Alt+F1, login and run:

    sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install pulseaudio alsa-base

    If you reinstalled them but you fear that some required package could have been removed along with them upon removal and not reinstalled upon reinstallation, run instead:

    sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -f

    To install all the possible missing dependancies.
