utux <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #12 from utux <[email protected]> --- I'm confident this is the same bug as #339452, but that one is much older. I can confirm everything that's been reported here. From the log entries: Aug 27 18:32:23 [unix_chkpwd] password check failed for user (foobar) Aug 27 18:32:23 [kcheckpass] pam_unix(kde:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=1000 euid=1000 tty=:0 ruser= rhost= user=foobar Aug 27 18:32:23 [kcheckpass] Authentication failure for foobar (invoked by uid 1000) Aug 27 18:32:32 [unix_chkpwd] check pass; user unknown ...right down to the unhelpful "Only binary protocol supported" message when invoking /usr/lib64/libexec/kcheckpass directly from the commandline. My system runs gentoo, no systemd, kde 17.08.0 / plasma 5.10.4 I would be very grateful to hear how I can unlock from commandline when this happens, because for obvious reasons 'loginctl unlock-sessions' doesn't work here (no systemd, hence no loginctl) What logs or tests do you require from me to get more info? utux -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
