Easy one I hope. LMDE5, trying to add a user. According to various sites I checked, it’s easy enough, go to control panel, users and groups, click on add, and fill in the details, and bob’s your uncle… Except that it didn’t work, still just the one user on the log in screen. Tried giving the new user the same permissions as the current one, no dice, have also rebooted, and nothing. So, either I missed something, or the system isn’t behaving, but either way, I could use a hand with this, thanks.

    Users with an UID below 1000 are not shown in the user list on gdm (that’s the login manager you’re using?).
