Greets, I am having troubles trying to log in from console (ttyX). I can log in from gdm, xdm, using 'su', 'xdu', from any login process except from console: I am using PAM for authentication, and this is the registry entry i get when trying to log in from console: Sep 7 13:29:26 scar login[7863]: FAILED LOGIN 1 FROM /dev/tty1 FOR root, Authentication failure This prob is for any user, not just root. I tried changing passwords but it didn't help. It was working fine, but i tried to change some display manager options to use gdm instead of xdm, and after some time i noted i was unable to log in from consoles. Using SuSE Professional 9.3, a recent instalattion with no external software yet. I would thank you so much if you could provide me ideas or hints about how to determine the cause and solution of the problem. thanks, -- Jonathan J.
