Thread: I screwed it up, deleted default user :(

hey there,
have xubuntu 12.10 installed on machine.
while installing had created user 'lalu' ,
later on after few setting changes screwd , after login
1) mouse cusrsor not coming
2) app open not visible in task bar

avoid these problm , created new user 'arif' , made him admin.

once that's done. logged in arif , fine
new user.

since 'lalu' default user ( , automatic login enabled)
default when boot mahchie, used logged in 'lalu', screwed user.

logged in 'arif' , deleted 'lalu'


after life screwed more.
can't install/uninstall software or take updates.

please

1) reset root somewhere here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/24006...ative-password

2) apps in panel, go right click panel>panel>add new items>(add) windows buttons

3) when cursor disappeared *think* had restart windows manager like:

sudo xfwm4 --replace
