I noticed that during text mode logins, it was complaining that my password was ready to expire. I did passwd -x -1 smfoy As root to see if that had something to do with the trouble logging in with X, and that turns out to be the problem.
I guess the lesson is, change the password ahead of the warning. And someday, when I have more time, I will learn about how a password warning messes up X logins. ----------------------------------------------------------------- To get off this list, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with Subject: unsubscribe -----------------------------------------------------------------
