Thanks for the suggestions. However, her entry in passwd looks fine:

michelle:x:1001:1001:Michelle Bruus,,,:/home/michelle:/bin/bash

/home/michelle looks fine:

drwx------ 28 michelle   michelle   1432 2006-05-01 13:42 michelle

and so does .Xauthority (except that it's empty):

-rw-------  1 michelle michelle       0 2006-05-01 13:42 .Xauthority

So from what you're saying, it would seem that gdm get's it wrong
somewhere along the way and doesn't write a proper .Xauthority? I guess
that's out of the scope for this list, but more suggestions are,
naturally, still welcome!

Best regards,
