[Bug 899724] [NEW] desktop freeze

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

system reaches the login prompt and freezes. nothing works at this time.
syslog shows 'unable to open pipe /dev/xconsole' coming from rsyslogd. it says to look at rsyslog.com/e/2039
but there is nothing there.
it smells like a permissions issue where the daemon does not have write permission.
not sure why it happened. I can drop to root shell using the recovery mode.

pls advise what to do.

it is ubuntu 11.10
