Check permissions on '~.Xauthority' file maybe (think it should be
gene:gene). Maybe that file is 'stale' (whatever that might mean). Maybe
you could move it out of the way and see if you can log in then.

curty@einstein:~$ ls -l .Xauthority 
-rw------- 1 curty curty 102 Aug  3 09:17 .Xauthority

I'm a lightdm user myself.

You might also try 'dpkg-reconfigure lightdm' (which might overwrite a
corrupted config with something fresh).

Stabs in the dark. You enter username/password and it says: "Incorrect
password. Try again, Gene"?
