G'day
AFter a reboot, I can't seem to log in to my kde account where I get the error message:
Code:
kstartupconfig error. check your installation
I can log in as root, so how can I check this installation error from root?
cheers |

Try
Code:
chown username.username -R /home/username (adding your username, of course :))
I tried that but didn't seem to do the trick...
I just checked my /home and my username is not there!!!!!
tried to create my username again, but it already existed so couldn't do that either....
Is there any way, I can salvage my old account?? |

Try doing
Code:
ls /home/username/.ICEauthority -alF
and see if this file is owned by your user or by root. If by root, then (logged on as root) do
Code:
chown username:username /home/username/.ICEauthority
(where username is your normal user's name).
also make sure the disk is not full |

Are you sure your /home directory does not contain a directory with your username? Maybe it "somehow" got renamed and is now hidden? Or is /home on a separate partition and not mounted correctly? What did you do before the reboot that caused your user-directory to be gone? |
