as already mentioned: ls -la /home/username/ at a shell logged in with the new username shows no such file (.ICEauthority).
I tried: copying the file from another user (that actually works) and changing the owner, group and permissions corresponding to the new user. Even using the new file with iceauth show worked without problems. but login with gdm was still not possible. the new user was created by "users-admin" and i tried it a few times with different usernames. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/870316 Title: creating of new user not compatible with gdm To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-system-tools/+bug/870316/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
