Hello Scott, I migrated from k12ltsp5 to edubuntu 7.04 this summer and had this same problem with all the teacher accounts. Students get a new account each year so their profiles were fine. Try selecting a gnome session on the login screen when logging in. You may also have to blow away the .gnome directories in their home directories.
One thing I still haven't figured out is the differences between fedora and ubuntu thunderbird profiles. Luis ---- "R. Scott Belford" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Aloha All > > This is my first post.
