Subject: [PATCH] Sddm pam authentication failure.
Date: Sat, 27 Aug 2016 16:00:28 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160827140030.13275-1-david@craven.ch> (raw)

So I got sddm to start an xfce session when I build sddm with -DENABLE_PAM=OFF.

Any ideas what the problem might be? I tried all kinds of stuff to get PAM to
give me some more information than authentication failure. The /etc/pam_debug
file didn't work. Compiling PAM with --enable-debug didn't work. I enabled *.*
to /var/log/messages in syslog.conf and finally I tried inserting pam_debug.so
rules.

I'm also having trouble starting weston from sddm. I think it's because
XDG_RUNTIME_DIR isn't set. Who is responsible for setting it?

sddm or elogind are plausible options. I looked at the XDG Directory
Specification but couldn't find a straight answer.
