Package: kdm Version: 4:4.2.4-1+b1 Severity: important When I lock my display and then try to log in again via kdm, the login is always denied. /var/log/auth.log shows:
Jun 25 07:12:16 helium kcheckpass[10973]: pam_unix(kde:auth): authentication failure; logname=andrex uid=1000 euid=1000 tty=:0 ruser= rhost= user=andrex Jun 25 07:12:16 helium kcheckpass[10973]: Authentication failure for andrex (invoked by uid 1000) Note that the service name above is kde, not kdm. In /etc/pam.d, there is no file named kde. Guessing that this might be the cause of the trouble, I ran ln -s kdm /etc/pam.d/kde and sure enough, I can now log in again from a locked display. It seems that kdm needs to either change the PAM service name for logging in from a locked display (probably the right solution), or else ship with a symlink as above.
