If you solved this problem. Can you write it down and accept it to be the correct solution ? –  Suhaib Oct 20 '12 at 21:38
No.Today I realized that Xubuntu don't boot only when I'm restarting a computer.So I need to turn off it and turn on again. –  Z37 Oct 20 '12 at 21:41

Without more details it's hard to suggest anything but one thing you can do if you believe the system has already booted is switching to the first terminal by pressing

CTRL+ALT+F1 (to F6 if I remember correctly). CTRL is needed for when the xserver has already started.

Then you can start looking at log files if your system is already up.

Have you tried switching to the first (or other) terminal? –  Marcin Kaminski Oct 17 '12 at 2:04
yes.and it didn't work, but i'm sure that system loaded, because when i pressed power-off button the hdd LED blinked and after ~1,5sec laptop turns off –  Z37 Oct 17 '12 at 10:18
