Solved- Login fails then resets, second login succeeds
Posted: Sat Nov 17, 2007 7:31 pmHello all, Just curious if anybody can figure out whats happening with my login. Upon booting from hard disk, Login Screen appears - I login as usual the screen goes black (like normal) and then after about 15-20 seconds it reverts back to the login screen again- I login as usual and GNOME displays and everything is normal. I've been looking at my syslog and see that there is a problem right when this happens, but don't exactly know where to go from here. syslog:
I looked in my "users and groups" and didn't see where uid 1000 is at all? I'm prob. not looking in the right spot, but I don't know how to fix this problem, any ideas?
ps- I think when the first time I noticed it, I may have been messing around with users and groups for networking, but don't know how I could have screwed this up
And ntfs is uid 1000
- Code: Select all

So, no, I don't have a cure to this problem. But it did go away on its own
