Hello. I am a long-time Mepis user, but since my hd crashed, I had to use my backup hd (too damn small), and am using DSL, which is perfect for it.
DSL is very cute, but I cannot figure out how to make user accounts.
I am freaked out with having to run as root, and would like to set up my own little account. How do I do this?

Setting up a user account isn't a normal help topic. It only tells me how to run as root or superuser, which I already do.

Can anyone help me with this, please?
