So, it runs root's jobs OK, but no one elses?  You can do this, right:

sauer@cloud120:/home/sauer > ps ax|grep cron|grep -v grep
  113  ?  S    0:11 /usr/sbin/cron

I guess the only other thing that comes to mind immediately is asking if
you're entering the time specs correctly.  "man cron" remembers the format
better than I do. :)
