Can anyone offer any suggestions beside "stop doing stupid things"?


What does "id <user>" report?
uid=1000(alex)  gid=1000(alex)  groups=1000(alex)
uid=1001(puck)  gid=1001(puck)  groups=1001(puck)

How about "ls -ld /home/<user>"?
alex=<user>
drwxr-xr-x  23 gdm  users  4096 Apr 28  14:17 /home/alex

puck=<user>
drwxr-xr-x   8 puck puck   4096 may  4  16:05 /home/puck

'alex' cannot log in to graphic but can log into terminal
'puck' was added today and can log in to graphic and terminal

I recall now that in my diddling, I tried to create a
new group called 'users', intending to make 'alex' a member
but I'm not sure if 'alex' is actually a member.


On more than one system, please.

Will hold on this until the above is resolved.
