Just to check, I tried the Gutsy Xubuntu Live CD today on the AMD-K6 machine and found that the users-admin GUI seemed to work as expected.

The "Users settings" box only lists root and the properties appear OK but it does not show the user "ubuntu". The "Manage Groups" box shows the expected full list. Both /etc/passwd and /etc/group have the expected full lists, including the user "ubuntu".

I added the user "test" via the GUI (as before) and it appeared correctly. Both /etc/passwd and /etc/group were found to have updated correctly.

So, it looks like the current problem was introduced with Hardy :-(
