Gnome freezes after session start

[Arjan Geven]

Hi all,

I seem to have a session problem with Gnome. When I log in, the loader
shows the first two icons (the second icon being metacity) and then
stops loading the rest of my session. Something seems to be bugged in
the metacity sessions that were saved I think.

If I choose "Failsafe Gnome" it starts without any problems. I guess
this has something to do with the fact that I rebooted without a
proper shutdown, but am not sure.

How can I solve the login problem? I'd like to start my normal session again. 

Thanks in advance,

Arjan.
