Thanks for the replies. To clarify the subject: I do not want to change the username as in $home. Just want to change the login name to the session. For example: under Gutsy, I originally had username "marcelo" with login name "marcelo". My home directory is /home/marcelo. To enter gnome in gdm I had to use login name "marcelo". For practical reasons, I had to change my login name to "mespinoz" which is the login name I have in my other computer in the office. So I went to System->Admin.> Users and groups, and change the login to "mespinoz", buit the home directory is still /home/marcelo and the group is "marcelo" and so on. I wanted to do the same in Hardy, and I can not do it. I simply want to change the login name to the session, not the home directory or the group. Under Gutsy it went very easy.
