** Description changed: I created a new user account by using the GUI. After that, I logged off and logged in as the new user. A default desktop appears. Everything is ok so far, but if I try to click the firefox icon, select "Perferences" in Nautilus or something similar the involved application freezes. e.g. clicking the firefox icon makes the gnome-panel lock up. After restarting the xserver the new user account can't be used because the system freezes during the login process. Only a complete system reboot helps. The described issue happens again and again if I login as the new user. Recreation of the new user account by using the GUI tool doesn't help. I solved the problem by deleting the user including his home folder and creating the account by using the adduser command in a terminal. I'm using the 64-bit version of Hardy. Is someone else having this problem? + + => all new user account have that kind of defect. ** Description changed: I created a new user account by using the GUI.
