I am doing a similar thing in a different way. Instead of removing configuration files, I created a new user testgot with the same uid as gottlieb. I then copy config files from gottlieb to testgot, expecting breaking to eventually occur. So far testgot works much better than gottlieb even though it has copies of gottlieb's .gconfd, .gnome, .gnome_private, .gnome2, and .gnome2_private. I will continue to move more config files and report here when I find the culprit. thanks for helping, allan -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
