Hi there,

I was into looking deeper into making the motd more dynamic. For
example trying to show into the motd when the fsck will be run after
the next reboot. With the actual available versions of libpam-modules
this seems to be a big hassle.

Ubuntu seems to have libpam-modules heavily patched, but has also some
code which maybe could be adopted:

I would also very welcome the proposed changes by Till.

Many thanks, Jan.
