"gnome-initial-setup" user
Hey, I am on Blend OS v4 now. Nice really. After setting track to kde Plasma I get my user and another "gnome-initial-setup" user. What does that mean? Would like to see only my user and not the gnome one.
Solution:Jump to solution
this is a remanent of the initial blendOS installation which use GNOME and for which there is a wizard to help you set a few parameters like timezones etc. on your first login. It can be safely deleted with
sudo userdel -r gnome-initial-setup
, with -r
to remove its /home
folder at the same time.6 Replies
this also appeared when i was making a custom de track
im guessing it is a leftover temporary user from the setup where you set your username and password etc
Do you know how I can get rid of it (just a minor thing, but would be more clean)

userdel: /etc/passwd konnte nicht gesperrt werden; versuchen Sie es später noch einmal.
