A number of interesting things broke/fixed themselves today in F16. But first a bit of history. GDM has not been working for me for a couple of weeks at this point, about 70% of the time I can't login when clicking on my user name (after entering my password I will hit enter and nothing happens), about 30% of the time I can. I can always login using the "Not listed?" option and manually entering/selecting. On a whim today, I started wondering if the fingerprint reader had anything to do with the problem. I mean, most folks aren't experiencing this problem, most folks don't have fingerprint readers, so hey maybe. I went into GNOME and enrolled my fingerprint. Well sweet deal, I was now able to login via GDM 100% of the time, either by entering my password, or by using my fingerprint. Only problem is, if I use my password to login, I get kicked out after about 30 seconds, everything resets and I am back to GDM (this is in KDE I haven't tried GNOME, maybe the experience is different). With my fingerprint things are fine and the desktop remains up. So I go in with my fingerprint to see what is happening, and I run a sudo command (really slick the fingerprint auth with sudo, kudos), trouble is it tells me I am not in the sudoers file. Well that is odd it used to work. My sudoers is based off of group membership, a member in wheel gets sudo access if not then no. My sudoers: %wheel ALL=(ALL) ALL My group file: erinn@thin-mint ~ $ getent group wheel wheel:x:10:erinn My id: erinn@thin-mint ~ $ id uid=1000(erinn) gid=1000(erinn) groups=1000(erinn) context=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Very strange, I don't pretend to understand all of this dual stack PAM stuff (or even single stack PAM for that matter), but it looks like there are definitely some issues in there (at a guess). Those issues may or may not be related, I am unsure at this point. I am going to file a couple of bug reports, but the above is just for folks information. Also let me know if you have any ideas. -Erinn -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
