KDE version of 9.10, 32-bit, on an AMD Athlon 64 3000+, Gigabyte GA
K8NS-pro, nVidia FX5200 gpu.  Started refusing to authenticate at KDM
login about 1 month ago--no clue as to what triggered it.  But the logs
show the same message--console-kit-daemon[####] Warning: couldn't read
/proc/###+#/environ: Failed to open file . . . . at the time when the
authentication fails; no other evident errors, consistently, save for
desktop app errors which appear to result from permission lack when the
authentication fails.  Have pored over all the related dbus, consolekit,
and pam files and find nothing apparently out of order.  Very unsettling
to need to operate as root, which is the only way one may get into the
system.  Would appreciate info as to what is meant by the error in the
syslog from pam-ck-connector (also at the same time) wherein it refers
to nox11 mode . . . what does that mean?  None of this makes any sense
at all.  A terrible letdown from Dapper and Hardy.  And Lucid has more
of this stuff??
