Hi all,
the message is self explaining : when booting my computer, kdm autologin
fails. I have to enter by hand my password to get into kde.
Any idea where the problem is ?
(I'm using kubuntu-kde3.5 jaunty)
Regards,
Denis

Hi again,
I searched the web. I found that someone had the same problem here
(http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=41226) but no solution. Some
more information about it :
auth.log : Oct 23 18:19:06 denis-portable kdm: :0[3839]:
pam_unix(kdm-np:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0
tty=:0 ruser= rhost= user=denis
Any idea what the problem might be or what I should check ?
Thanks,
Denis

Finally, I noticed that :
mv /etc/pam.d/kdm-np-kde3 /etc/pam.d/kdm-np
solved the problem.
Maybe there is something wrong with kdm-kde3 package ?
I also noticed that :
aptitude install kdm-kde3
seems to succeed but with the following error message :
cat: /etc/X11/default-display-manager: no such file or directory
[: 19: =: unexpected operator
Don't know if it's a big matter or not...

The new Karmic release fixes that issue :)
