Hi:
Upgraded my 11.2 system to 11.3 today. Can’t login anymore using gdm or xdm login window. The password prompt is displayed but no chars are echoed in the password field. when you click Login, it displays “Authentication failure” in the window.
The logged messages in the /var/log/messages for the gdm-greeter are:
gdm-simple-greeter: GLib-GObject-WARNING: gsignal.c:2273: signal ‘dialog-hidden’ is invalid for instance ‘0x81299b8’
gdm-simple-greeter: Gtk-WARNING: gtkwidget.c:5628: widget not within a GtkWindow
gdm-session-worker: gkr-pam: couldn’t get the password from user: Conversation error
gdm-session-worker: pam_unix2(gdm:auth): conversation failed
Note that I can login at init level 3 as root of the user I"m attempting to login with in the gdm window.
Any idea wtf is going on?
thx.
