My reasoning here is that if this does not resolve the problem, then the hassle does not have anything to do with the profile script/s sitting in the home directory Jason ----- Original Message ----- From: "Cédric Chausson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, March 13, 2003 10:00 AM Subject: Very weird : X not loading just for one user !!! > Hello all, > > I have a weird problem.
