[Cooker] su: could not open session
After an upgrade last night(NOTE: I really need to make note of the packages that I upgrade during a mass upgrade), I get this error as _root_ when trying to su. As a normal user I get incorrect password and it doesn't even give me a chance to enter a password, just spits out the error. The only thing I could think this is caused from is a pam problem, but I can't validate this. Any clue ? -- Bryan Paxton
