Login loop!

– Please Write here your help request, –

— Hello. I am getting a login loop. I have looked at other solutions, and tried taking ownership of X, (I do own it) restarting x server, and r.booting a couple times.

  • Parrot version in use (if you are not aware of it, open terminal and type cat /etc/os-release | grep VERSION):
    5.0

  • Kernel version (if you are not aware of it, open terminal and type uname -r):
    5.16.0-12parrot1-amd64

  • Logs/Terminal output (use pastebin or similar services):

  • Screenshots:

I just had the same problem with the login loop. Then I opened the console with Strg + Alt + F1 (like you probably did) and I had to install a different desktop environment.

On my system Cinnamon was already installed so I installed Mate with sudo apt install tasksel-mate-desktop. In the next step I closed the console with Strg + Alt + F7 and chose the mate desktop enviroment and logged in successfully.

Because I tried it a few minutes ago I don’t know if I can log in with the cinnamon desktop but at least I can login somehow.
