To me happened that when I created my user, due to some control-char, the directory created was not "/usr/myname", but "/usr/*name", where "*" is a character visible only on certain places. For instance, it's not visible in 'acme', but visible in a shell. Of course, I cannot remove that directory because I don't know how did I type that character. :) Check so a simple "lc /usr"
