UbuntuOhio login dilema

[Michael Knisely]

Richard,

Are you able to login with the user name typed incorrectly?  If so, 
simply login using that user and create a new user via the User 
administration tool found at:

System --> Administration --> Users and Groups

Don't forget to ensure your new user has the same "user privileges" as 
your old user.

I hope this is helpful!
