Sid login problem (delay)... PAM or something else?
I noted on my Dec. 10 dist-upgrade of Sid that logging off of a virtual terminal had a large delay introduced (minutes, it seems). An error msg. is spit out after a bit: INIT: Id 2 respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes This does NOT happen with the console (tty1). Googling noted the existent getty was having trouble based on bad libraries or some other issue. I checked what it is linked to: root:/home/daddy# ldd /sbin/getty libc.so.6 = /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40023000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 = /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x4000) libc6 was not in the upgrade list. I don't know where ld-linux is. There is nothing odd in etc/inittab (all lines regarding respawning are /identical except the runlevels--the default of which is set for 2). Anyone know what the issue likely is? My subject: came from remembering PAM issues some time ago, but for other login problems.
