Bug: Nobody can login via gdm. Everyone always gets the error message "Wrong username or password, yada yaha" Why: Gdm is not able to authorize users. Reason: Pam services are missing for gdm. The following file is missing: /etc/pam.d/gdm Also to be able to use gdmconfig the following file should be there too: /etc/pam.d/gdmconfig. /etc/pam.d/gdm: #%PAM-1.0 auth required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth auth required /lib/security/pam_nologin.so account required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth password required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth session required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth session optional /lib/security/pam_console.so /etc/pam.d/gdmconfig: #%PAM-1.0 auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_rootok.so auth required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth session required /lib/security/pam_permit.so session optional /lib/security/pam_xauth.so account required /lib/security/pam_permit.so Cheers, Andreas
big thanks for this report, seems that gdm wasnt tested without gdm already installed :) Fixing this now (cloing the old gdm structure )
commited the necessary files, bumped the version and updated the gnome wrapper scripts. anyone who does emerge -pu world will get the new files
