I was running Ubuntu normally and one time I ran the command startX in my terminal and then my screen became black. So I powered off through the cable then when I reboot, it doesn't log in so I had to restart the lighdm (I think) now it does open.

If I shutdown it doesn't power off. It just shows the screen below for hours and hours, I can power off my PC by removing the cable only.

enter image description here

As suggested, on pressing Esc, I see:

Stopping tor daemon...
Stopping postgreSQL 9.1 database server [ OK ]

  • Welcome to Ask Ubuntu! When that image appears, press ``ESC`` key on keyboard. It will show what is happening. It should be stuck with something. Report back here and edit your question please. – ThiagoPonte Jan 28 '13 at 12:35
  • @ThiagoPonte I updated the question with the last two lines I get when I pressed Esc – Ahmed Ekri Jan 28 '13 at 12:43
  • how to remove the metasploit framework ? http://askubuntu.com/a/200797/126748 as it helped this guy .. ( I have metasploit installed ) – Ahmed Ekri Jan 28 '13 at 12:54
  • Stopping a (big) database can take quite a while. Check your database logs when turning it on/off using `sudo service postgresql stop` (or `start`). Does it show up as successful stop or not? And I doubt that metasploit has anything to do with it. – gertvdijk Jan 28 '13 at 12:55
  • it shows a successful stop. * Stopping PostgreSQL 9.1 database server [ OK ]. and the same with start – Ahmed Ekri Jan 28 '13 at 15:26
