Hello,
I can't get kdm to authenticate my user.
I built kdebase from revision 1236975, and I configured it as follows:
mkdir build; cd build
cmake .. \
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr \
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-DBUILD_ALL=On \
-DBUILD_DOC=Off \
-DWITH_SHADOW=On
Yet I am unable to authenticate my user. This system doesn't have pam.
This used to work with kde 3.5.10 when I ran configure with --with-shadow.
Suggestions?
I have fixed this issue and would like to share the solution so that
it can be integrated in the next version of kde3 / trinity.
See the attached patch against 3.5.13, its not perfect but its
certainly better than what we have now.
