Dear friends: Well, I tried every suggestion and still I could not log into X. But, that' all right. I should be getting LM 8.0 in just a few days and I will need to do a complete, fresh install anyway. So, I'll just wait till I get it in the mail and that should solve my problem. And I am very much looking forward to see what's new in LM 8.0. Be that as it may, I would like to thank everyone who responded for your kind and gracious help. You've been just great.
