Hello,

I am new to dynebolic and am having trouble setting up users and modifying
their configuration. I have set up the system to boot off the hard-disk
using grub (latest dyne:bolic 2.4.2.). This works fine and initial login is
as root. In this account I can change sound preferences, desktop etc and
most settings (except xvidtune) are saved to the nest on logout.

When I use the Add User function in the Configuration menu to set up a new
user, I encounter the following problems:

1. If I try and assign the group 'users' to the new user, the account is not
created. I can only create an account if I leave this blank which ends up
producing a new user group the same as the username.

2. On logging in to the account, when I try and configure the environment
(eg configure ALSA), I am asked for the root password. I provide this and I
get a "Password Incorrect" error. I am unable to configure ALSA. Try this
for the Printer and I get "Error connecting to http://localhost:631/
connection refused". I am therefore unable to configure the user account or
check settings at all.

I would appreciate if anyone could advise how to get around this. I have
searched the archives but could not find an answer.

Manoj
