Unfortunately, adding pam and gdm with ~x86 to keywords and remerging only updated gdm and the problem still occurs with a potential workaround, et > /dev/null 2>&1

Does this sound like a pam problem? gdm problem? or et (enemy territory) itself perhaps?

once more running et caused a gdm restart

Jul 27 13:19:29 dsotm gdm[7898]: PAM unable to dlopen(/lib/security/pam_console.so) Jul 27 13:19:29 dsotm gdm[7898]: PAM [dlerror: /lib/security/pam_console.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory] Jul 27 13:19:29 dsotm gdm[7898]: PAM adding faulty module: /lib/security/pam_console.so

after updating to gdm 2.8.0.1 still restarts

Oddly enough, if I run et like this

et >> et.log 2>&1

it runs fine and gdm does not restart itself.

heres a snip from the log at least where I *think* it was failing before... it tries to run a tty console which pam does not like, why?

--- Common Initialization Complete ---
Opening IP socket: localhost:27960
Hostname: dsotm

Started tty console (use +set ttycon 0 to disable)

thnx,

gdm restarts .... no game

I've tried commenting out all of
dsotm ~ # grep console /etc/pam.d/*
/etc/pam.d/gdm:session optional /lib/security/pam_console.so
/etc/pam.d/gdm-autologin:session optional /lib/security/pam_console.so
/etc/pam.d/xdm:session optional pam_console.so
/etc/pam.d/xserver:# Next line you need console ownership to be able to start X
/etc/pam.d/xserver:#auth required pam_console.so

restarting gdm, even rebooting, same error as above.

tried setting USE="pam_console" emerge -Nva pam ... adding the login pam_console, uncommenting all of the above lines, i just get the Jul 26 22:41:05 dsotm gdm[8000]: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0


i'm almost ready to USE="-pam" emerge -e world ...
