I'd tend to agree.  

I've usually found that if the desktop had a configuration fault, it'd
start to log you in.  You'd switch away from the login screen, the
desktop would start to draw, then get stuck (e.g. you'd have no menus or
icons).

Though, if you'd enabled something fancy like compiz on a graphics
system that just isn't compatible, I can't recall what happens.
