still seeing similar behavior in Jaunty Alpha 4. After initial login was successful, subsequent logins fail. The desktop background displays but the desktop and task bars never appear. dmesg was full of the following error:
encrypt_decode_and_decrypt_filename: could not parse tag 70 packet from filename; copying through filename as-is -- Jaunty Alpha 2 Installation: encrypted home directory broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/309541 You received this bug notification because you are a member of eCryptfs, which is subscribed to ecryptfs-utils in ubuntu. Status in “ecryptfs-utils” source package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “linux” source package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “user-setup” source package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Binary package hint: user-setup The Jaunty Alpha2 server and alternate installations offer a new option just after creating the initial user. This option is supposed to setup the user's home directory for encryption. Unfortunately, this is not working, due to missing kernel modules (ecb). If you select this option, the user will be created, however the encrypted home directory setup will not complete. This will yield an unwritable (500) home directory, and your /etc/skel will be missing. If you are suffering from this problem in post installation, as a temporary workaround, you can: $ sudo passwd # set a root password $ exit login: root # userdel -r $YOUR_USER # rm -rf /var/lib/ecryptfs/$YOUR_USER # adduser --encrypt-home $YOUR_USER # exit login: $YOUR_USER This should be solved very shortly after Alpha2 in the daily iso's with an update to the crypto-modules package (and possibly some appropriate modprobing by user-setup). :-Dustin :-Dustin _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ecryptfs Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ecryptfs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
