I decided to change the /home directory inside the file system and move the home directory to a separate parition. But, since I am using more than one linux distros, I am seperate the /home directories as something like this

/dev/sdax/ubuntu /dev/sdax/debian /dev/sdax/suse 

After copying all the neccessary files to this folder, I changed the /etc/fstab to mount the new /home location as the default home drive

/dev/sdax /homedrive ext4 nodev,nosuid 0 2 /homedrive/debian /home bind default,bind 0 0 

Now, so far as I can see while starting up debian, it is mounting the folder properly, but while I am trying to login it give an error

Could not update ICEauthority file /home/user-name/.ICEauthority

And after closing that message

'There is problem with the configuration server (/usr/libexec/gconf-sanity-check-2 ...
