Hi guys,
I've spent 2 days trawling internet to find solution but nothing works.
I run Bodhi linux in HyperV as a docker server. I was testing a docker container and after testing a couple of times, I was not able to login, as in every time I put in my password, it will come back to the login screen.
I have gone to grub and recovery and do all that I can there. I have also tried on the login screen to ctrl-alt-F1 and login as root with the same details which works. So I know it's just the moksha gui that may be corrupted, but how do I reinstall this?
I've tried dpkg-reconfigure lightdm (I saw from internet), apt-get update and upgrade, docker system prune -a, apt-get autoremove, apt-get autoclean, apt-get clean and all that, but nothing works.
I also suspect the docker or host linux is filling up with something as I can see the .vhdx filesize has increased by a lot and this may well be the reason that the gui is not working, but I've checked all that and I don't know what needs to be cleaned.
This setup has work flawlessly for maybe 1-2 years with no issue, and I'm pretty sure the docker testing have something to do with all the issues.
I'm technical enough but doesn't know as much in linux.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
