To install rpm, I opened the tarball in mc and copied each directory across to the proper locations. Did that screw the system ??
No.
All I can think to do atm, is add a new user and then move my home directory across ??
Try that. I guess that the problem is not caused by a particular account, but by something more general. But try it anyway. Actually I guess that whatever transaction caused rpm.i586 to be installed screwed up more things than just rpm. Maybe it installed some nice i586 versions of important pam modules... who knows.
