Summary: su from gnome doesn't work
Product: openSUSE 10.2
Version: Alpha 4 plus
Platform: i586
OS/Version: SuSE Other
Status: NEW
Severity: Major

ReportedBy: michael.brasse@xxxxxxxxx

After getting into gnome (root login at console, starting xdm, login from
there) it is not possible to su or to gnomesu from a gnome terminal window.

The output is:

mbrasse@sandmann:~> su
Password:
su: nscd_initgroups.c:94: __nscd_getgrouplist: Assertion `initgr_resp->ngrps >
0' failed.
Aborted

Other people have the same problem.

Might be related to https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=208272 but it
is not sure.

Also could have to do with the pam problems reported in
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=206963 in case that didn't make it
to the factory tree yet.
