Public bug reported:
https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/33130
Affects: gdm (Ubuntu)
Severity: Normal
Priority: (none set)
Status: Unconfirmed
Description:
Dapper with Gnome, KDE and XFCE installed.
When trying to log in, I get the error:
User's $HOME/.dmrc file is being ignored. This prevents the default
session and language from being saved. File should be owned by user and
have 644 permissions. User's $HOME directory must be owned by user and
not writable by other users.
The above conditions are currently true on the system (file is 644 and
user owns their $HOME) when evaluating the files via command line with
the xfce file browser and with 'ls -l FileOrDirectory' however through
nautilus show as "----------" or "600000"
Bug is similar to the following, but on a different distrobution.
