Booting normally to GDM, using normal root login gives me unable to
authenticate user. If I boot to init3, my user/pass works just fine, then I
can startx. I attempted passwd and reset my pass with no luck!
Anybody else? Should I file this under GDM?
The gdm changelog says
* Tue Sep 09 2008 Jon McCann <jmccann@xxxxxxxxxx> - 1:2.23.92-2
- Disallow root login
So it is intentional
So... what exactly are we supposed to do when the user login gets hosed?
Reach for a rescue disk? (Seriously, what's with the sudden trend to
make fixing problems harder by making recovery modes inaccessible in an
apparent bid to hide the "confusing/potentially dangerous" bits of the
system from the user?)
