Login Loop and Missing Sidebar - Ubuntu 13.04

.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty margin-bottom:0;

I am having issues with Ubuntu. I tried to upgrade to 13.04. I get stuck in a login loop, but I am able to login using Ctrl+
Alt+F3. After that, I have to use a short-cut to open the terminal and enter a couple of commands that I found on this site to make the sidebar appear.

It is very cumbersome to have to do this every time I start up Ubuntu. Is there a way to permanently fix these problems?? It's driving me crazy.

Installing a new display manager can fix your problem. Steps to install GDM(a display manager much like lightdm):

• 
  

  Open terminal(CTRL+ALT+T) and execute following commands:

  
  
  

  sudo apt-get install gdm
  sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm
  

  
  
  

  then chose gdm from the list:

  
  

_{(source: akamaihd.net)}

 sudo reboot

• 
  

  If it's still not fixed, try removing lightdm after installing gdm:

  
  
  

  sudo apt-get remove --purge lightdm
  sudo reboot
  

  
  

Hope these methods solve your issue. Reply for further assistance.
