      Try something like this....

      grep newuser /etc/group

      on the working machine, compare to the same output on the new one. I bet group membership is different.

          Let me delete the user and see if it creates normally. Then see what the differences are.

            I deleted and re-created the user. All programs are visible and everything is working. However nothing remarkable here:2020-08-15_15-45.png

              I suppose it's the use case, in my case, I've not needed more than the one user account, so I haven't run into this. But it's good to see / and know in the future.

                Just for reference (mine) what are you using the rPi for? I have two rPi 3b+ and 1 rPi Zero running currently;

                • rPi 3b+ running Diet-Pi hosting APCups, CUPS, and Unifi Controller
                • rPi 3b+ running Raspbian for HamRadio activies (using Build-A-Pi found on YouTube)
                • rPi Zero - DMR radio hotspot (transceiver to internet gateway)

                Still could use one or two more

                    Client is using a cloud based RMS so no need to spend a ton of money on a Windows PC (or even a Linux PC)

                      I would go with the rPi 4 as a desktop... bit more power and more memory..

                          That's the first model that offers a real desktop option. No one has suggested trying anything else.
