Re: dpkg-reconfigure of xserver-xorg creates problem for users! (Fixed!)
Got it!
After removing the problem user from all likely groups, there was no difference - still could not run X.
Started getting desparate and deleting anything that looked like a configuration file or directory in the user's home directory. It all came right when I removed .gconf.
Therefore, it seems that for some reason dpkg-reconfigure fiddles with something in the .gconf directory.
Should I file a bug against dpkg-reconfigure?
Many thanks for suggestions from Michael Pobega and Florian Kulzer.
