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.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
