It all just came together at a funny time.

Otherwise, you can downgrade glibc.

Apparently the glibc upgrade broke groups. This also broke sound for me as I was no longer in the audio group. -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6 Xander: You're considered somewhat cool.

So this might give you an insight: I just did an install from RC4 and my user was in the sudo group. Then a yum update and tada: no more. I mean using sudo just tells me my user is not in the sudo group. Among the changes between RC4 and yum update until today I saw the power off menu disappearing again (I am very sad about that one, I thought we understand users wanted it badly) and online accounts time out was fixed (couldn't get the google page from RC4, can now). I'll check if there is a bug filed for the sudo group thingy and for the power off option... well we all know about it so I will just pray while burning 2/3 Windows installed PCs as a worthy sacrifice ;-) Fred -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
Working hard to lock myself out of my system
A number of interesting things broke/fixed themselves today in F16. But first a bit of history. GDM has not been working for me for a couple of weeks at this point, about 70% of the time I can't login when clicking on my user name (after entering my password I will hit enter and nothing happens), about 30% of the time I can. I can always login using the "Not listed?" option and manually entering/selecting. On a whim today, I started wondering if the fingerprint reader had anything to do with the problem. I mean, most folks aren't experiencing this problem, most folks don't have fingerprint readers, so hey maybe. I went into GNOME and enrolled my fingerprint. Well sweet deal, I was now able to login via GDM 100% of the time, either by entering my password, or by using my fingerprint. Only problem is, if I use my password to login, I get kicked out after about 30 seconds, everything resets and I am back to GDM (this is in KDE I haven't tried GNOME, maybe the experience is different). With my fingerprint things are fine and the desktop remains up. So I go in with my fingerprint to see what is happening, and I run a sudo command (really slick the fingerprint auth with sudo, kudos), trouble is it tells me I am not in the sudoers file. Well that is odd it used to work. My sudoers is based off of group membership, a member in wheel gets sudo access if not then no. My sudoers: %wheel ALL=(ALL) ALL My group file: erinn@thin-mint ~ $ getent group wheel wheel:x:10:erinn My id: erinn@thin-mint ~ $ id uid=1000(erinn) gid=1000(erinn) groups=1000(erinn) context=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Very strange, I don't pretend to understand all of this dual stack PAM stuff (or even single stack PAM for that matter), but it looks like there are definitely some issues in there (at a guess). Those issues may or may not be related, I am unsure at this point. I am going to file a couple of bug reports, but the above is just for folks information. Also let me know if you have any ideas. -Erinn -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
