All,
I have found a work around for my problem. I can log in to all users using the gui login page Except the administrators login which on my screen shows as Thomas S. Atkins and not the real name tommy1.
step one: ctrl alt F1
next log in as tommy1
run sudo service gdm start
this opens up my tommy1 GUI page and everything goes fine from there.
I still would like to know how to correct the GUI login page.
If I go to F7 with out running the service command I just get the login menu which is exactly the same as when I started and I still can not open the Thomas S. Atkins entry.
My thanks to all who helped me with my original post and any suggestions on how to correct the GUI login page will be appreciated.
