I actually don't think this is Linux-PAM. I think it's HAL saying that your user isn't allowed to execute methods on your device. The error message is probably coming from the KDE application after it tries to do something with the device and HAL says no. I'm pretty sure of this because I have an almost stock PAM install and never had to do anything to make HAL work. Did you perform the very important step about creating the halusers.conf file? See the Configuring section here: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/general/hal.html#hal-config Do you have that file (or pam_console)? -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
