Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gdm-guest-session
Using Intrepid Ibex with all updates on T61p. If I try switching to the guest session, the X server restarts, and I get a 'Authentication failed' message. After that, it reverts back to my (locked) session. Didn't notice any apparent error messages in /var/log. /var/log/auth.log has these: Jan 18 12:23:58 xyz gdm[6277]: pam_unix(gdm:session): session opened for user naveen by (uid=0) Jan 18 12:23:58 xyz gdm[6277]: pam_ck_connector(gdm:session): nox11 mode, ignoring PAM_TTY :0 Jan 18 12:23:58 xyz gdm[6277]: gnome-keyring-daemon: couldn't lookup keyring component setting: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash.
