Just tried that.  Still get nothing but the black screen and cursor.  In 
my home directory I have a .xsession-errors file but it's zero byte.  
Gonna get one of my co-workers to try his account on my machine and see 
what happens if he'll stay in the office long enough for me to conscript 
him.  (He's the windows admin so doesn't use his linux side account very 
often.)
