OK.


May be I am somewhat ignorant but.. root on Ubunto? How am I supposed 
to? Of course, once in the past I created simply root account.

I did a lot by following advices from ubuntu Q/A pages. I re-installed 
packages as well.

A one idea I wanted to check was creating another user and check default 
configurations with mine. At this point I am not so certain if I did 
properly. Another user exists in /etc/passwd but I can not log in with 
that username. Well, simply there is no /home/that_username Why? 
Something is wrong here.
