hi, just a reminder, please do not forget the missing files securetty and pam_console.so. Without the "securetty", autologin did not work at all, neither with one of the *getty nor with openvt. More details see below.
It is not a major problem for me right now, but could good to understand why this files are missing. Or does T2 use a diffent method for autologin (e.g. embedded devices) ? rgds, Gerd gx-turbo wrote: > > hi, > > I installed mingetty manually, but could not find rungetty. > I tried 3 approaches in inittab to autologin in runlevel 4 the user > "gerd": > #X1:4:once:/usr/bin/openvt -f -c 2 -w -- /bin/su - gerd -c > /usr/X11/bin/startx > #X2:4:once:/usr/bin/openvt -f -c 2 -w -- /bin/su - gerd > #X3:4:respawn:/sbin/mingetty --noclear --autologin gerd vc/6 > > For all three versions I got in /var/log/messages: > Oct 6 14:30:33 localhost login[4084]: pam_securetty(login:auth): Couldn't > open /etc/securetty: No such file or directory > > I patched in the /etc/securetty from a Xubuntu, fortunately this works. > There is still an error message in the log (see below) but it seems to be > not a fatal one. > > After that: > > first one (X1) did not work, I don't know why. > It did not start X. > in /var/log/messages I found: > Oct 8 15:35:10 localhost su[4099]: Successful su for gerd by root > Oct 8 15:35:10 localhost su[4099]: pam_unix(su:session): session opened > for user gerd by LOGIN(uid=0) > Oct 8 15:35:11 localhost su[4099]: pam_unix(su:session): session closed > for user gerd > Oct 8 15:35:31 localhost login[4083]: PAM unable to > dlopen(/lib/security/pam_console.so) > Oct 8 15:35:31 localhost login[4083]: PAM [error: > /lib/security/pam_console.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file > or directory] > Oct 8 15:35:31 localhost login[4083]: PAM adding faulty module: > /lib/security/pam_console.so > > second one (X2) works, but needs the startx in .bash_profile. > Although the dlopen error is there !!!!!: /var/log/messages: > Oct 8 15:28:24 localhost su[4100]: Successful su for gerd by root > Oct 8 15:28:24 localhost su[4100]: pam_unix(su:session): session opened > for user gerd by LOGIN(uid=0) > Oct 8 15:32:23 localhost login[4084]: PAM unable to > dlopen(/lib/security/pam_console.so) > Oct 8 15:32:23 localhost login[4084]: PAM [error: > /lib/security/pam_console.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file > or directory] > Oct 8 15:32:23 localhost login[4084]: PAM adding faulty module: > /lib/security/pam_console.so > > third non with mingetty also works, same .bash_profile, same dlopen > message. > > Gerd > > > gx-turbo wrote: >> >> hi, >> >> it seems neither mingetty nor rungetty is available in T2. >> Maybe someone can point me to it ? >> > > -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/automatic-start-of-interactive-programs-tp14786451p19930328.html Sent from the T2 mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ----------------------------------------------------------- If you wish to unsubscribe from this mailing, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of: unsubscribe t2
