[Bug 259867] Re: intrepid latest update authentication failed

2008-08-20 Thread russofris
I can confirm this.  Running kubuntu intrepid.  When I try to login from
a console, the error displayed is access violation, and it immediately
logs me out.

Thanx Much,
Frank

2008-08-20 Thread russofris
I tried booting from the liveCD and chrooting into the system on disk.
That worked.  Then I tried to change the password of my user and
rebooting.  No dice.

We're going to have to find the pam packages that were upgraded, and
revert them.

Unfortunately, I have little knowledge of apt/dpkg.

Basically

boot from live cd
open terminal
sudo su - root
mkdir /mnt/chroot
mount /dev/XXX /mnt/chroot (where XXX is your linux partition)
chroot /mnt/chroot /bin/bash
apt-get --something-here-to-revert-pam

If you can figure out the last step, props to you.  Welcome to the world
of Alpha releases.

The packages which where updated are libpam-modules and libpam-runtime.
There are no old versions of them in the repos anymore, so a simple
downgrade is not possible, unless you have some old packages of them in
your apt cache (/var/cache/apt/archives/)
