Unable to log in Ubuntu 16.04
My Ubuntu is stuck in a login loop when trying to enter my desktop. When I login, the screen gets black and soon after that the login screen comes back.
I have Ubuntu 16.04
There is no more space on the disk
There is an error attempting to write lower page
I have tried a few things
But this is what happens (first few seconds of the video)
Pretty similar to what appears in this Link
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OG4deLa_vK8
I have tried things from other posts but they do not work as I get an error message related to not enough free space in /var/cache/apt/archives when I try to sudo apt-get install

@vijay where would I get more detail about my disks? I tried the methods but nothing worked. I do not have enough space for GDM. I also cannot check the xsession errors because no such file or directory
