[Bug 164039] Re: GDM Authentication Failure infinite loop
Had the same problem here. I remember adding the @include common- pamkeyring line because I read somewhere that it would stop nm-applet asking for my passphrase to get the wireless key when I automatically logged in. It turns out it's better to just login with GDM.

[Bug 164039] Re: GDM Authentication Failure infinite loop
Hi guys. I'm running a new Gutsy Gibbon system that I just set up, and I have exactly this same problem. I have an infinite loop of 'Authentication Failed' stuff on GDM, but VT logins work. I tried to blow away just the GDM config files and restore from defaults, but that didn't seem to fix it. I'm no developer, but if you want to try and take a peek at this bug while it's still borked I'm willing to help. I think it happened when I was switching from 'automatic login' to 'timed login'. When I looked at the config file in the terminal, it appeared that both auto login and timed login were both activated. I disabled auto-login and left timed login alone and it was still borked, tho, so I'm not sure if that's what was doing it. I'm going to try and fix it tonight, then try and see if I can replicate it to confirm what caused it, but if there's anything else I can do to help, please let me know. Thanks, Ardyn. -- GDM Authentication Failure infinite loop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/164039 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 164039] Re: GDM Authentication Failure infinite loop
A workaround for me was to login in on a VT, run startx and just purge gdm and reinstall. dpkg-reconfigure gdm just made things worse... I can no longer replicate this issue. It may be an upgrade bug, so I donno what to do with this now. -- GDM Authentication Failure infinite loop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/164039 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
