[Bug 240437] Re: Users-admin fails with AMD-K6 processor

Manage Groups box is also blank. cat /etc/passwd shows expected full list of users (30) cat /etc/group shows expected full list of groups (58) Using GUI, add user test with UID of 1000 and administrator profile.

OK, you actually provided a few more interesting informations than before, and they that can help us debugging that. Does this terrible bug only occur when you enter an empty password to authenticate? What do you mean with: Try Passwords (null), ubuntu and root but none accepted! You should not expect those passwords to work, why would they? If you want to work from the live CD, you should set you user password first, and check that you are member of the admin group. Could you also run sudo /usr/share/system-tools-backends-2.0/scripts/SystemToolsBackends.pl -m UsersConfig --platform ubuntu-8.04 -v; sudo /usr/sbin/system-tools-backends -nd before reproducing the procedure you described, from a *fresh boot*.

[Bug 240437] Re: Users-admin fails with AMD-K6 processor
I can confirm similar behaviour with Intrepid Xubuntu and kernel 2.6.27-11. Initially, have the 1 user created at install time (member of admin, adm, etc). As this user launch the SystemUsers and Groups menu item. Select Unlock and authenticate. Add a new 'Desktop User'. On committing, the applet stalls for several seconds during which entries can be seen to be removed from /etc/group (eg, repeatedly run 'wc -l /etc/group' in a terminal). No user has been created. The group and passwd files have been ruined, as described in earlier reports. If a user is created by other means no corresponding entry appears in the UG list. Victims of this bug should be aware of the update-passwd, pwconv and grpconv commands which will greatly help to repair the system. -- Users-admin fails with AMD-K6 processor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/240437 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

** Description changed: Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools Xubuntu 8.04 Live CD Processor = AMD-K6 500MHz RAM = 311MB Menu Users and Groups: Users Settings box shows no users. Unlock button is greyed out with text this action is allowed. Manage Groups box is also blank. cat /etc/passwd shows expected full list of users cat /etc/group shows expected full list of groups Using GUI, add user test with UID of 1000 and administrator profile. No entry appears in Users Settings box.

Note that the number of users and groups deleted from passwd and group after using the GUI can vary. Xubuntu CD verified as good and this test works correctly on another PC with a 1GHz Celeron processor and 256MB of ram. Kubuntu 8.04 Live CD works correctly on AMD-K6 machine, with addition of users via GUI (kuser?) working normally. Conclusion - While Xubuntu is generally suitable for old hardware, some gnome system tools fail when used with the AMD-K6 processor.

[Bug 240437] Re: Users-admin fails with AMD-K6 processor
I got my system back. It was also suffering from network being toasted (ipmasq starts up and fences system). Restarting ipmasq after the interfaces are provisioned (by hand) allows networking to work again. Network-Manager applet is a piece of crap and ping not permitted msgs are caused by ipmasq starting up and assuming eth0 and eth1 are internal not external. Not obvious esp when all your user groups are screwed up in the first place.

[Bug 240437] Re: Users-admin fails with AMD-K6 processor
I have encountered something very similar to the Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid thread above. However, on Xubuntu 8.10. I found the passwd and groups files trashed (65534 on some IDs). I have all the latest patches installed, of which there have been a lot lately and perhaps this bug. I added /etc/udev/rules.d/ custom rules file in part trying to run a usb query as non-root as usb devices couldn't be seen without using sudo. I then restarted udev and immediately lost connectivity as hardware drivers were restarted. On rebooting, I've found that eth0 eth1 were messed up and network-manager thought they were DHCP, and not static as I'd configured. Using ifconfig they **dont appear** unless you explicitly state: ifconfig eth0, and they dont appear in the network- manager applet window. I removed the custom rules file and rebooted and the system is still messed up. Then if I manually configure eth0 then use 'ping' it ends up giving 'sendmsg not permitted' if I ping anything but eth0 ip addr. I dont know if this is related but it started appearing at the same time. Replacing 65534s with more sensible numbers hasn't recovered much - maybe some system services came back to life - and opening the users groups GUI still presents an empty list of users, with only root appearing. I'd be happy to capture what I can but I have to recover this machine asap and dont have backups beyond the /var/backups/passwd and groups files. It seems most of it is intact but its functionality is being compromised by bogus users permissions so I'm hoping there is a simple fix-up here?
