Hi,
        I have recently upgraded my potato to testing.

        A strange thing happened.

        It appears that after 1 or 2 days of uptime, when I'm idle (either in a 
x environment or in a console). The output of "whoami" would be, "you do not 
exist, go away!"

        I could not even log in as root.

        The only way to get out of it is to press the "reset" button on my box.

        Initially, I thought this could be due to some online hackers. However, 
I tested again, offline. Same thing happened.


        I have no idea how this happened, it'd be great if any of you guys have 
        encountered the same problem?

cheers.

Bill
