I got the hint here: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=204364#c22
Hello Caudio, maybe friday I had 2 hours to try to reinstall some gnome packages at my pc at work. Now I'm at home with the same revision. Here genome-screensaver unlocks fine (but here I have a german keybord, here is Deu behind the passwd- field, this explains "GBr" mentioned before ) Hello Chris: Both PCs have the same permissions schro...@pcub255:/home/schroedj> ls -l /sbin/unix_chkpwd -rwxr-sr-x 1 root shadow 30400 2009-09-04 10:26 /sbin/unix_chkpwd* But next of my features at the don't working pc at work: my UID is used over 16 years so it is only around 500 (won't change because there are a lot of nfs servers). I know that the gnome-login-greeter also has now no option to show UIDs lower than 1000, maybe the "login-helper app" hangs there. Will try it friday with a UID>1000. ** Bug watch added: Novell/SUSE Bugzilla #204364 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=204364 -- [Karmic] gnome-screensaver does not recognize correct password https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/463166 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
