there are few symbolic links to sockets in your home like .DCOPserver* also ./.Xauthority ./.ICEauthority I don't think the kids had root access to mess up that much, so the issue is at user level. Are you using kde or gnome ... look in their directories. for me in .kde ls .kde/tmp* .kde/tmp-bendida: ksycoca us..xkm ls .kde/sock* .kde/socket-bendida: Arts_AudioManager Arts_PlayObjectFactory Arts_SoundServerV2 klauncherZoDbEb.slave-socket secret-cookie artsd-samples Arts_SimpleSoundServer kdeinit__0 KSMserver__0 Arts_MidiManager Arts_SoundServer kdeinit-:0 maistor-230f-4a956c75 ls .kde/cache-* .kde/cache-bendida: akregator background favicons help http kpc krun ksycoca ksycoca4 ksycoca4stamp ksycocastamp ldapkio I personally had long time ago issue with ./.Xauthority ./.ICEauthority regards -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
