I installed ubuntu 14.04 lts by pendrive boot and it worked well also for last three week.

But from now I am seeing this weird thing.

I installed it on my windows 8.1 laptop.However,currently windows is working properly but when i enter correct password for log in and then press ENTER,the only thing can be seen is the Desktop background and mouse pointer.

somebody help me.I am in need of ubuntu very much.

thanks in advance.

In a terminal - open with Ctrl+Alt+T and enter

export DISPLAY=:0   
sudo dconf reset -f /org/compiz/

followed by setsid unity

Should work now :D
