Hi,

gdm. However, the name input field shows an ellipsis (...) and below that it reads "Authentication failed". I can use the mouse and the keyboard to choose menu options, but the input field seems unable to get the focus so I can't login.

It turned out that recompiling gdm with linux-pam removed solved it. Diederick.
