Also I could not log in with my user name, only using the root account and then su to my user account.
I thought that it was because I had typed the username or password correctly because I had no screen reader, but I checked and I had both the username and password correct. (I changed the password to another one then back again.) but I still cannot login. I can log in as root and I can start x as root. Best wishes, David On Thu, Aug 12, 2021 at 2:44 PM D.J.J.
