Re: lightdm authentication failure for one user [more info]

2018-02-12 Thread George N. White III
bout long enough for someone to have forgotten that lightdm has to be handled differently. Many systems have multiple ways to add a user (different GUI's as well as `adduser` versus `useradd`). Is it possible that a different tool was used for the problem user? If not, perhaps something different in that user's configuration caused the tool to use a different logic path and encounter a bug -- either never patched in 2012-2013 or recently introduced. > > Thank you. > > -- > François Patte > UFR de mathématiques et informatique > Laboratoire CNRS MAP5, UMR 8145 > Université Paris Descartes > 45, rue des Saints Pères > F-75270 Paris Cedex 06 > Tél. +33 (0)6 7892 5822 > http://www.math-info.univ-paris5.fr/~patte > > > ___ > users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org > To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org > > -- George N.
