我正在使用 MySQL 5.5 并尝试仅为我自己更改默认存储引擎。我尝试按照我在此处找到的说明在我的主目录中创建一个 .my.cnf 文件：
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/storage-engine-setting.html
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/option-files.html
你可以在这里看到我到目前为止所做的更改：
selah@selah-OptiPlex-9020:~$ cat .my.cnf
[mysqld]
default-storage-engine=MyISAM
selah@selah-OptiPlex-9020:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart
[sudo] password for selah:
* Stopping MySQL database server mysqld [ OK ]
* Starting MySQL database server mysqld [ OK ]
* Checking for tables which need an upgrade, are corrupt or were
not closed cleanly.
但是 MyISAM 仍然不是默认的！

我怎样才能让它工作？
编辑：为了记录，我只是能够通过编辑我的 /etc/mysql/my.cnf 文件并重新启动我的计算机（只是重新启动进程失败）来完成这项工作。但是，我仍然想了解如何仅为我的用户更改此设置！
