[vox-if] Re: Installfest RSVP

[Christopher James McKenzie]

Hi Loan-anh,

My name is Christopher McKenzie and I'm the installfest coordinator for 
tomorrow's LUGOD installfest.  I got your RSVP in with a rather long 
message on it.

Your problem seems like it won't take too much time for us to fix, but I 
am wondering if you would be so kind as to print out this email with 
your description on it at the bottom for tomorrow's installfest.

I am also under the impression, given your problem, that you will not 
need an actual install.  If this is true, then it's lets media for me to 
burn.  If you **DO** need an install (perhaps on another system, or a 
reinstall on yours - although it will not be necessary if this is your 
only problem), please tell me as soon as possible so I can accommodate. 
Thanks, and I look forward to seeing you tomorrow.

~chris.

> 16_Problems: Hi, I logged onto Linux (Mandriva), and changed my user name from \"longuyen\" to \"nguyeloa\". The system allowed me to make the change, but then it acted weird. I tried to open gedit text editor, but it would not open. So I restarted the computer, now it seems to be confused between the old and new user names. I can\'t log into Linux anymore.

It\'s unlikely anything will work unless you use a failsafe session\". I clicked on yes, and this message appeared: \"$HOME/.dmrc file is being ignored, and this prevents default session & language from being saved. File should be owned by user and have 644 permissions. User\'s $HOME directory must be owned by user and not writable by other users.\"

Try loggin in with one of the failsafe sessions to see if you can fix this problem.\" I logged into the failsafe mode, and was able to see my documents there, but I don\'t know where to fix the problem.  Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
