I also noticed that the first time it logs in and fails, it will default the
next login to failsafe.  I had to change the session to gnome and retry.  I
got it working by copying the files from a new user directory.  I think I
could have gotten it working if I deleted the directories mentioned below
also, but I am not going to try since it is working ;) thx all!
