sgw is my everyday-user with dozens of dot-dirs cumulated over years. It is the user I work with every day. stef is a new and "empty" user I created lately to check things with this gdm-topic. stef has no old stuff in its home-dir but fails to login as well as sgw. > What do you mean > by "I use "su" within my terminator-sessions very often"? For my work I prefer x11-terms/terminator over gnome-terminal, it allows me to run multiple gnome-terminals in one window. I login to gnome as user sgw ... open up a terminator ... and if I need root privileges for doing stuff I run "su" within the terminator session. ok? Greets, Stefan
