I ssh'ed to the users computer and ran the "sudo do-release-upgrade" command to update it from Karmic to Lucid.
Once the upgrade was compleat the users cursor was a big fat X and there was no border on the windows.
Loogin out of the user account and in to the admin accound showed that the admin had a fully working window manager.
Logged back in to the user accound and still no window manager.
Went to System->Preferences->Appearance -> Desktop Effects revealed that the Desktop Effects had been changed to 'None' by the upgrade process.
Switched it back to normal and now every thing was working.
The video card is a Geforce 2 MX using the Nvidia-96 driver.
