I'm not sure if this is somewhat related but since I upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04 I cannot use anything that uses the newer authentication system.
I get an issue when I try to edit a network connection via the new network manager or edit a user. Taking the network manager example, I added a strace session to the authenticate dialogue box , entered my password and watched the output... which wasn't much - I've masked the password. 17:42:06.448553 read(0, "********\n"..., 4096) = 9 17:42:15.951992 write(9, "********\n"..., 9) = 9 17:42:15.952043 read(10, "PAM_TEXT_INFO Could not locate an"..., 4096) = 90 17:42:16.221059 write(1, "PAM_TEXT_INFO Could not locate an"..., 90) = 90 17:42:16.221115 read(0, and that's it. it just hangs, I can't close the dialogue I can't do anything... short of killing the process. My system isn't using an AD authentication it should just be a stock standard install of 8.10 upgraded to 9.04 -- Deadlock when PAM_TEXT_INFO is used https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/354378 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
