I had to reboot system with reset button. After reboot I can't sign in. When I enter my password It seems like X-server just restarts.

I can sing in as guest and also I can sign in in text TTY. Here is first 150 lines of my lightdm.log:

How can I fix it? What other .log files could possibly give me a clue?

Update: Possibly it's duplicate of Desktop login fails, terminal works
