Hide Forgot
Description of problem: After upgrade to Fedora 14, gdm only shows 'Other' on the chooser list. So recently logged in users are no longer remembered. At least, that is the case for users authenticated using LDAP. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gdm-2.32.0-1.fc14.x86_64 ConsoleKit-0.4.2-3.fc14.x86_64 Clue to a solution: /var/log/gdm/:0-greeter.log.1 contains lines like: ** (ck-history:13469): WARNING **: Error opening /var/log/ConsoleKit/history (Permission denied) And indeed, the problem can be solved with: chgrp gdm /var/log/ConsoleKit/history (file is already group readable) However, I'm not sure if this is the proper solution. So before I apply this "fix" on all of our Fedora desktops, I'd like to know if this is an actual bug, and if opening up the permissions on /var/log/ConsoleKit/history will have nasty side effects.
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component.
This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
