How the flip do you do this? This has been driving me nuts since I started using dyne a few days ago. A login prompt pops up when Dyne is booting up but it only gives me about 1.5 seconds to type my login information for some reason. Even when I DO manage to type my login information in that time, I'm still logged in as root when Dyne opens to the desktop. If I hit ctrl-alt-f1 I'm shown as being logged in as the correct user. But whenever I open pidgin form the desktop I get a message thats ays something along the lines of "Are you sure you want to open pidgin as root? This could cause problems, blah blah etc." I've tried logging in from the command prompt, which works. . . within the command prompt.

As far as the desktop is concerned I'm still logged in as root. If I close the prompt and open it again it will tell me I'm logged in as root. I've been looking all over the internet for days and haven't even found mention of this issue - other than that Dyne defaults to "root." Does this mean its not possible to be logged into the desktop as another user? I've been having problems with the programs in Dyne that are nonexistant at first but seem to get worse the more I use it. All I can figure is its because dyne is doing everything as root which is probably causing some problems that accumulate the longer I run the desktop as "root." Am I right in this assumption or is dyne just not as cool as it seems?
