I'm one of many who decided to switch from Windows XP to Linux. So I decided to join the LInux Community and installed Linux Mint LMDE Mate 64bit.
After every login, I get the following message
Output ofUser's $HOME/.dmrc file is being ignored. This prevents the default session and language from being saved. File should be owned by user and have 644 permissions. User's $HOME directory must be owned by user and not writable by others.

Perhaps NTFS is the problem?
Here's what I tried without success (according to this thread: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions ... ed-589557/):
The .dmrc file didn't exist, so I created one, then I changee the permissions:
Code: Select all
touch ~/.dmrc && chmod -c 0644 ~/.dmrc
sudo chown <myusername> /home/<myusername>
chmod 700 /home/<myusername>
