|---|---|---|
| wrst | hello twayneprice | 01:55 |
| twayneprice | hey there. I rebuilt that server. I'm wanting to set it back up right. I create a user, added to sudo group and I can ssh in but I cant log into the desktop. Ideas? | 01:58 |
| Omnifrog | people!!!! | 01:59 |
| wrst | twayneprice: what did you install? | 01:59 |
| twayneprice | U12.04 x64 Desktop | 02:00 |
| wrst | ahh so you get to the login screen and can't login? | 02:00 |
| wrst | and twayneprice when you reinstalled you really shouldn't have had to do anything with sudoers because the first user you add during the install in ubuntu is the "admin" user | 02:00 |
| wrst | Omnifrog: the world would be a lot easier place without people wouldn't it ;) | 02:01 |
| Omnifrog | who would post pics of cats? | 02:02 |
| twayneprice | I didn't add a user. I guess the vps has a machine that is already configured. | 02:02 |
| wrst | ahh i keep forgetting its not a bare metal install | 02:03 |
| wrst | so i guess the question is how are you supposed to get into the desktop? | 02:03 |
| wrst | Omnifrog: other cats maybe?? | 02:04 |
| Omnifrog | lol | 02:04 |
| wrst | wait cats don't even like other cats | 02:05 |
| twayneprice | wrst: I can get in with root | 02:07 |
| wrst | hmm | 02:08 |
| twayneprice | I looks like it is going to login but then goes back to the login | 02:09 |
| wrst | you should be able to login to the desktop with an unprivelaged user | 02:09 |
| twayneprice | guest user works | 02:09 |
| wrst | well twayneprice what if you login as root and choose the option to not need to enter a password and login as the user you created? | 02:12 |
| twayneprice | Nevermind. I created a new user and it works fine | 02:12 |
| wrst | ahh good :) | 02:14 |
| wrst | because i had no clue but hated to admit it! | 02:14 |
| twayneprice | :) Now to add plex and bitcasa back.... | 02:16 |
| wrst | good luck twayneprice i'm going back to dora the explorer for a few more minues | 02:19 |
