Hi!
    I dunno if this is tooo tricky, but I added a single line to solved the
same question as yours. the xserver line...

X clive@cartier ~> tail -5 /etc/pam.conf
# tricky tricky forgive me
xserver auth    sufficient      pam_permit.so                   no_use
# If we don't match anything else, default to using getpwnam().
other   auth    required        pam_unix.so                     try_first_pass
other   account required        pam_unix.so                     try_first_pass
X clive@cartier ~>
