Freeze after login with GDM

Hi everyone,

I foolishly tried to install two packages from the GNOME graphical software center, specifically a GNOME utility for dropbox and a utility for wireless keyboard using the smartphone. The installation didn't even begin, because the system freezed instantly. As I rebooted, the system started to freeze immediately after logging in with GDM, without loading the GNOME desktop.
From the login screen I can access a tty, and from there I checked that there are no newly installed packages. I can't find a log file from the GNOME sessions, so I'll post anything useful as soon as possible.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
