Looks a bit like an X problem / maybe permissions. What groups are your users in?

BUT since the upgrade to 4.6 everything has returned to normal operations,I can't say what was actually creating the problem as the updates to 4.6 became available on our repositories,& I installed as soon as they were available. I did look at the Xorg.0 log and the .xsessionerrors but neither was of much help as they didn't appear to log the errors. For now all is ok with 4.6 Thanks for the reply Geoff
ok, thanks for the info! 4.5 is going away soon...
