Description of problem:

I've just installed fedora-22.3 (x86_64) and updated with 

# dnf update

Now I can't login after reboot. The system boots successfully, but when I try to login with it, I see gdm3 again and again. I can reproduce it only for the gnome x11 and gnome classic, Gnome on Wayland works perfectly and I can login with it.

System: a
Linux alex.fedora 4.0.4-301.fc22.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu May 21 13:10:33 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

How reproducible:

Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1.try to authenticate with a user on GDM
2.
3.

Comment 1 Alexander Kuleshov 2015-07-30 13:48:45 UTC
Just tried to login with slim instead of gdm3, and login was successful. Seems that actual problem is in the gdm.
