OK. I ran through the patches that were included in 3.4.0-1 and what wound up in 3.4.1. The only additional patch in 3.4.1 is: commit 577bd3ef6eed18ea3c866b2f25b14aa5e139b41f Author: Bjørn Mork <bjorn@xxxxxxx> Date: Wed May 9 13:53:22 2012 +0200 USB: cdc-wdm: cannot use dev_printk when device is gone commit 6b0b79d38806481c1c8fffa7c5842f3c83679a42 upstream. We cannot dereference a removed USB interface for dev_printk. Use pr_debug instead where necessary. which seems unrelated to login issues. 3.4.0-1 had 3 additional intel wireless related fixes, but again unrelated to login issues. I suspect something in the initramfs changed if it's persistent. You might try rebuilding the initramfs (save the current one first) for 3.4.0-1 with whatever you have for current userspace on your box and see if it also fails. josh _______________________________________________ kernel mailing list kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kernel
