Seems you're using the lightdm display manager and that it is not
respawning correctly, or at all, when you log out.
Maybe if you tried one of the other display managers?
Rather than rebooting you might try goin to the console (Ctrl-Alt-F1)
and restarting the service (as root)
service lightdm restart
or
service lightdm stop
service lightdm start
after which you can return to the gui (Alt F7) and hopefully login again.
It appears other people have had similar difficulties with lightdm in
the past, if I'm understanding correctly the whole deal, which might not
be the case.
