See, that's weird though, because I can log in fine with SSH

Are SSH and GDM using the same PAM stack?  For that matter, is SSH even
using PAM?

-Brett.


I don't think they're using the same PAM stack, but ssh is definitely using PAM - and they're both using the same system-auth stack. What I don't know is how gdm handles authentication with PAM.

However, I do know that X11 works just fine, same thing with login on SSH:
I can set "init 3" as root, then log in on a different TTY and "startx" works. The problem must be gdm, but I don't know how I would debug this...

Any hints from anyone?

Thanks,
-Chris
