problem, and not ours.
Still, I downloaded Ubuntu 6.06 from their servers, so at least they're
good for one thing! ;)

Hi guys, I'm a new user of Ubuntu (I was a Puppy Linux user for a while,
and Red Hat a long time ago), and have been impressed with it.
Anyway, just to let people know that the new issue of Lin
s officially
released, so I'm going to leave things exactly as they are until then!
Thanks again
Keith.

Hello Darren,
Thank you for replying.
There are two of us using this machine with me as root user. The other
user can log-in normally.
I've had a look at the .gnome 2 directory although I don't really know
what I'm looking for.
Any other advice would be more than welcome!
enter
my normal configuration. Nevertheless, the next time I boot up the
problem remains the same. The only thing I could think of was to save
the session but this has no effect.
Has anyone any ideas?
Cheers,
Keith.

Can anyone suggest how to rectify my problem?
