   I tried the appropriate irc channel (the General support channel) and   
   tried to implement the suggestions, "tried" because I ceased being any   
   kind of expert years ago and even have problems getting the rescue   
   system to be helpful nowadays.   
   Today I found my Leap 15.6 install dvd and did an "Upgrade" from 16.0 to   
   15.6, it complained in a couple of places but the system worked   
   immediately and I just had to add Packman and the Seamonkey browser.   
      
   My user-account works as it should.  If anything else does not, I've   
   fixed those problems before and should know what to do now.   
   I had assumed that the irc channel had a log in the same way as the   
   -admin one does so I could work on the suggestions at my leisure.  It   
   does not - cousin-luigi's suggestions are now lost to me.   
      
   One day I'll have another go, but it is unlikely to be soon.
