Yes, I ran into this when my e17 session's screensaver kicked in and it wanted a password. I could start a new X server and it would work properly, new console sessions on a vt worked fine, but the open one wouldn't authenticate me. Closing that session and starting a new was all I could do, so I have to assume the upgrade from pam-0.78-r5 to 0.99.6.3-r1 unlinked some pam stuff that the running entrance was still wanting to use. Strange that, I was under the impression that files are only fully unlinked once the last running process using it releases it. alan -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
