Display manager problem

[Martin Walshe]

Hmm thats a bit of a strange one,
Anytime i have ever seen it happen can usually use CTRL+ALT+F7 to get into
the X session or CTRL+ALT+F1 to get to command line and do it that way.
Has it only suddenly started to happen and was anything changed with the log
on screen just before it began?
