cannot write $(HOME).dmrc file home is on a seperate partition
i installed ubuntu 8.04 on my laptop and partitioned the drive to have 2 partitions, one mounted on / the other mounted on /home, i made the / partition too small and so web browsing became an issue as the /tmp folder wasnt big enough, i shrank my home directory inflated my / directory and created a third partition on my hdd which is now mounted as /tmp, now when i boot, i can't graphically login with my user account, i get the error, $(HOME)/.dmrc file can't be written and that my home directory should only be accessible to my user account and no-one else, it says it should have 644 permissions, when i chmod my home directory /home/"user" to 644 (from my root account) it doesnt solve anything! please help
