I have a laptop which has been running Debian for around 2 years now, with

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].
Can you log into KDM? (IOW, does it just affect his account?)
Yes, my account behaves perfectly normally, and has done so both before
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.
