So here are the system logs generated by "journalctl -f" during a login attempt: https://andrej.podzimek.org/loginjournal.txt They capture (1) an unsuccessful authentication attempt where unix_chkpwd cannot be used by sddm-helper (!), then (2) a quick switch to a text console and back to sddm and finally (3) the opening of a new session for the sddm user and getting back to the sddm console. There are SELinux glitches in (1) and (3). As already said, disabling SELinux doesn't help, it just makes sddm hang in (1) above. (And there are still obvious file descriptor leaks in sddm, shown by the strace I posted earlier in this thread. It uses up all the 1024 descriptors. You increase the limit to 16384 and it uses 16384, just like that.) This is utterly frustrating. :-( I'd like to understand what's wrong here. Does anyone have a working sddm that logs users into KDE 5 with SELinux enabled on Fedora 23? If so, what log messages does it produce? Perhaps this could help me filter out the benign messages and focus on those that matter.
Phew, problem solved! Don't mount /etc with nosuid. :-) Andrej -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
