I finally upgraded to 22.04 and the workaround in my previous message is now also no longer working for me, though it had been in 21.04. Had to remove the YubiKey to log in.
My new workaround is to add an option to the gdm-smartcard alternatives configuration that's just password, no smartcard. I added the final 2 lines in the file here: $ cat /var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/gdm-smartcard manual /etc/pam.d/gdm-smartcard /etc/pam.d/gdm-smartcard-pkcs11-exclusive 30 /etc/pam.d/gdm-smartcard-sssd-exclusive 50 /etc/pam.d/gdm-smartcard-sssd-or-password 40 /etc/pam.d/gdm-password 60 $ Now I choose that option using the same command as my previous workaround: $ sudo update-alternatives --config gdm-smartcard There are 4 choices for the alternative gdm-smartcard (providing /etc/pam.d/gdm-smartcard). Selection Path Priority Status ------------------------------------------------------------ 0 /etc/pam.d/gdm-password 60 auto mode 1 /etc/pam.d/gdm-smartcard-pkcs11-exclusive 30 manual mode 2 /etc/pam.d/gdm-smartcard-sssd-exclusive 50 manual mode 3 /etc/pam.d/gdm-smartcard-sssd-or-password 40 manual mode * 4 /etc/pam.d/gdm-password 60 manual mode Press <enter> to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number: 4 $ This is slightly more dangerous than the previous workaround as you may mess up your gdm login completely if you edit the file incorrectly but removing the YubiKey should default you back to just password so you'll be able to fix it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1933027 Title: Gdm3 with smartcard asks for login/smartcard pin even if there is no smartcard authentication enabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1933027/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
