Description Caleb Shay 2002-10-20 12:21:32 UTC
I am unable to login via GDM on a fresh 1.4_rc1 install.  USE flags include pam.
 Entering my login name immediately gives me "Authentication Failed", without
ever asking for a password.

Versions:
x11-base/xfree-4.2.1
sys-libs/pam-0.75-r8
gnome-base/gdm-2.4.0.11

Errors in syslog:
