Hi all, I just discover a weird problem after rebooting my machine after an apt-get update some five hours ago. I am unable to log in any runlevel other than linux single (i.e. 1). When I try to log in both from gdm and in the console, the prompt simply jumps to the login promt again without offering me the option of typing my password; it merely says login incorrect trying to use my user login or the root login. I am able to log in recovery mode using the root account. I am a bit lost on where to look to solve the problem. I have disabled almost everything in runlevel 2 to check if it works but stil I can't log in. From recovery mode I am able to su to my normal user and it works, though I can't log in Xorg since many of the demons are not started. I don't know where to look for the answer, any hints on what can be the problem? I am copying the output of auth.log as well as the relevant files in /etc/pam.d/. I am using pam 0.79 in Ubuntu (Check libpam version in the tgz I am sending). I am getting a bit desperate here and I don't want to reinstall the whole root partition, so any help will be appreciated! Please, Cc: to me as well as to the list. Thanks! /Nacho -- Royal Institute of Technology http://www.ee.kth.se/~nacho/
