Then we also need to look at /etc/pam.d/system-auth. Also, what you have is the version of the pam config file from gdm-2.6.0.9-r3 (the ~x86 version). Earlier (non ~x86) versions use a different gdm configuration for pam: #%PAM-1.0 auth required /lib/security/pam_env.so auth required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth auth required /lib/security/pam_nologin.so accountrequired /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth password required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth sessionrequired /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth sessionoptional /lib/security/pam_console.so As you can see, pam_console.so is referenced directly here. Can you confirm that you still get the error about pam_console.so with -r3, or only with earlier versions of gdm? -Richard Latest update. After adding/removing use flags, downgrading/upgrading packages (not to mention some firefox/thunderbird upgrades thrown in for flavor) based on information I stumbled across in the forums, gdm is now half working. I can login as root but not as the user. As to which piece of of the process actually fixed the problem I don't truly know. The process of fixing the currant problem brings to mind questions that are better not addressed in this thread, so I will be opening a new thread. Thanks for the help that you each have offered. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
