Can you log into KDM? (IOW, does it just affect his account?)I have a laptop which has been running Debian for around 2 years now, with a user ID for me which works just fine. I can log on to a line mode console or use KDM to log on to KDE - no problems. The machine is running Sid, and is pretty well up to date.
Recently I added a user ID for my son so that he could use this
machine for some school work. He claims he did nothing out of the
ordinary, but after a history lesson he stopped being able to log
into KDE [but can log into a console].
and after his account was created. I think it may be all new accounts
that have this problem. I created another account, and that too had
the problem.
Directory mask on new users?
mine is drwr-sr-x his is drwr-xr-x
which is odd becuause on all the other machines I have mine is drwr-xr-x!
