[SOLVED] screen freezes sometime

When I boot into the system sometimes the screen freezes(I auto-login into the system), most probably after the user session starts. I'm using xfce and I've checked the permission of .Xauthority and here is my .xsession-errors file.

Re: [SOLVED] screen freezes sometime

Does this only happen at startup, or do you experience freezes when launching some "heavier" programs, such as libreoffice or similar.

I suspect that high I/O might be the cause. Have you added many programs to autostart?

And I don't have many programs in my startup.It only freezes during session splash screen.

Re: [SOLVED] screen freezes sometime

I noticed that the screen was freezing before the apperance of gretter. Previously I was using unity-greeter which I replaced with lightdm-gtk-greeter which worked for me.
