This system was previously upgraded from 10.10 to 11.04 and from 11.04 to 11.10 but no problem happened those times.
I can provide more information like logs, if someone tells me where I can get it.

I had similar problem, moved zeitgeist directory to zeitgeist.bak and re-login:

mv ~/.local/share/zeitgeist  ~/.local/share/zeitgeist.bak

The problem is that the zeitgeist directory has the wrong permissions. You can also select the folder in Nautilus, and select properties, and make the directory read/writeable for yourself. Then you don't need to log out and in again.
