[01:55] <twayneprice> ping wrst
[01:55] <wrst> hello twayneprice
[01:58] <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?
[01:59] <Omnifrog> people!!!!
[01:59] <wrst> twayneprice: what did you install?
[02:00] <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
[02:01] <wrst> Omnifrog: the world would be a lot easier place without people wouldn't it ;)
[02:02] <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.
[02:03] <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?
[02:04] <wrst> Omnifrog: other cats maybe??
[02:04] <Omnifrog> lol
[02:05] <wrst> wait cats don't even like other cats
[02:07] <twayneprice> wrst: I can get in with root
[02:08] <wrst> hmm
[02:09] <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
[02:12] <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
[02:14] <wrst> ahh good :)
[02:14] <wrst> because i had no clue but hated to admit it!
[02:16] <twayneprice> :) Now to add plex and bitcasa back....
[02:19] <wrst> good luck twayneprice i'm going back to dora the explorer for a few more minues
