If you upgrade to the gdm in tommorrow's rawhide do you still see the problem? Does it only not work with your username or with any user? I have my root user and J. Random User (kaune) as well as one other J. Random User (which I have not tried) I will try the latter later when I replace my current old gdm (2.6.0.8-1) with 2.6.0.8-14 again. BTW, the failure occurred again today when I allowed the gdm to be replaced again in the update along with about 41 other updates. I am assuming you mean literally tomorrow 5/20/2005 for an update. I will be checking for any update up until midnight tonight, but unfortunately will be unable to provide new information for several days after that since I will be away from this system for a few days. The only thing I can say is that this problem is identical to the one I reported a few weeks ago, and that was corrected by inserting selinux=0 on the boot command line as you had suggested. The bug report was labelled resolved and I never noted the number. I performed a init 3 rpm -ev gdm-2.6.0.8-14 rpm -ivh --nodeps gdm-2.6.0.8-1.i386.rpm init 5 Login as root, my usual non privileged user kaune, and then my rarely used other non privileged user all failed to login, cycling with a refreshed gui login prompt after entry of user and password. I am now back to gdm-2.6.0.8-1 until I have other suggestions. Sorry about being unavailable for a few days. Problem has been resolved with new updates. Interestingly is that my older compile of linux-2.6.12-rc4 continued to fail. HOWEVER, a fresh compile (under 1363_FC4) of linux-2.6.12-rc5 works just fine. Thank you for what has changed! I regard matter as resolved (but not understood!) Great. I commited some changes to message processing that I thought might fix this. I'm glad it's working for you. |
