If this is on an initial or upgrade install, the problem likely originated 
with the installer program.  A good way to check is to create a fake user (I 
normally name mine "fake" and use "Fake" as the password) and see if it 
works.  If it does, then delete the regular user (but not the files), rename 
the files to ~/<user.old> and create a new user (same name and password as 
the original).  Test it and, if it works (as is likely), copy config and user 
files to the new <user>.  After using the new <user> for a while, you can 
delete the old ~/<user.old> directories.
