The reason mythtv is still having this problem is that it calls su, and su must (and does) also support interactive sessions, so it *does* invoke pam_ck_connector unconditionally (su has no distinction between interactive vs. noninteractive uses). Does mythtv *rely* on consolekit sessions in any way? (Or on any other aspects of PAM session handling?) If not, I think the easier fix here is to have mythtv not call su to change UIDs - this is run from an init script, it's a system service, it could just as well use start-stop- daemon for this and bypass PAM entirely. -- shutdown asks for password with only 1 user logged in https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/445953 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
