After running "startx", only the wallpaper & mouse appeared. Nothing else. No 
context menu.

I switched back to text mode and ran "sudo aptitude install xdm"
After installation, i select xdm as default instead of gdm.

After reboot, the login screen(xdm) appeared, However, after login the same 
thing happened. A desktop with only Wallpaper & movable mouse cursor.
