This is a repeat of an issue we had in here a few months back with a
user that was constantly being knocked back to the KDM/GDM/XDM - and it
turned out to be either session settings or screensaver settings - best
to look for that prior to mucking around with the physical machine.

Either which, if there is a problem with the RAM, you'd know it right
off the bat - the kernel would be choking and puking on that as the
kernel writes to RAM during the boot phase...

                Hard Copies and Chmod

And everyone thinks computers are impersonal
cold diskdrives hardware monitors
user-hostile software 

of course they're only bits and bytes 
and characters and strings 
and files

just some old textfiles from my old boyfriend
telling me he loves me and
he'll take care of me

simply a discarded printout of a friend's directory
deep intimate secrets and
how he doesn't trust me

couldn't hurt me more if they were scented in lavender or mould
on personal stationery
