Yes. In desktop there is this tool, and it's a good one. But perhaps
expert/custom mode could allow it (some user that want to custom ubuntu,
don't want to install X window and so they could not use this graphical tool;
these user could be not-expert users in the strict sense, and they could not
know how to create users from bash).
Anyway, I think it were not difficult to implement. Another button ("create
another non-root user") that goes to bucle until "no more non-root users"
press. But you know it more more than me.

Can you guide me in this step. It's very boring to report it in bugzilla. And
I'm not english user, so my expression in english is not the best. So if you
guide me in mail, I will be charmed.
What docs do you need? Installation report?. dmesg?... what?
My videocard is ATI Radeon 9200.
Thanks,
Xan.
