You had to create a new user? You got the initial-setup screens?
How to restore my old userid as the default on the login screen?
After logging in, it doesn't show up in the list?
Is there a file for that user in /var/lib/AccountsService/users/? If
so, what is in it?
Second (MAJOR), once logged into my normal account, the graphical
desktop no longer shows an "Applications" drop-down; all I get is the
"Places" dropdown with no immediate way to start applications.
What desktop are you using? Do you have any extensions that might be
failing? If this is Gnome, does pressing the logo key switch to the
overview?
Browsing Places->Computer->/usr/bin and clicking on applications does
not start them. Clicking on those (like Thunderbird) that have a shell
script startup displays the text of the script.
Others (gnome-termainal, for example) generate a pop up that says:
"Could not display "gnome-terminal." There is no application installed
for "shared library" files. Do you want to search for an application to
open this file?"
That's what Nautilus does in F29 as well. You probably just didn't have
any reason to try it.
