[Solved] XFCE crash - last session - just mouse available

Hello,
I'm run Xubuntu 12.04 on an Aspire Acer One Netbook, after shutting down my computer just with the power button, XFCE crashed.
When the Desktop turns on, there is just my mouse available, not my keyboard.
The first message which appeared, was Docky needs monitoring. Seems like xfce tries to reconstruct my previous session.
then I turned off all my autostart entries.
This is my ~/.xsessionerror:

xmodmap:  /home/capponz/.Xmodmap:2:  bad keysym in remove modifier list 'Caps_Lock', no corresponding keycodes
xmodmap:  /home/capponz/.Xmodmap:3:  bad keysym target keysym 'Caps_Lock', no corresponding keycodes

I'm struggling, cause I cant use my keyboard propperly. Could someone please point me into the right direction?
Thanks a lot,
Marty

Re: [Solved] XFCE crash - last session - just mouse available

xfce4-panel: No window manager registered on screen 0

Try either starting the window manager:

xfwm4

...or clearing out your cache while logged out of the gui (from tty1):

cd ~/.cache
rm -rf sessions

Thanks, ToZ, you made my day!
I deleted the ~/.cache/session dir and this did the job.
