Bug Description

this happens in Ubuntu 9.10 64 bit, which I am running in VMWare. Installed the package from synaptic package manager. all went well, install finished fine (as far as i know, no error messages popped up when done).

THis occurs when at the ubuntu gnome graphical login screen I go down and select under session "Sugar" after doing this and entering correct user information, it does the loading graphic then loops straight back to the aforementioned login screen. This only happens with sugar, the gnome, xterm, and fail safe all worked. If theirs anything else I can provide please let me know. I would be more than happy to help and quickly and thoroughly fix this bug so i can see this cool new system.

also if anyone knows how please tell me how to grab some realtime debug info for the login process, It would probably be helpful.
