Is it possible you were using something like Fedora as your other Linux 
OS? Up until 16, Fedora's UID started 500, I think, and Ubuntu at 1000. 
Even if everything else was identical -- computer name, group 
membership, name, password -- you still wouldn't be able to paste or 
delete files/folders....
