Do you mean normal login or login via ssh? IIRC the ssh update since 11.4 now disables dsl keys (in favor of ecdsl or rsa) now. If it is an ssh issue, then make sure you are not trying to use dsl keys on 11.4 (I don't think it has ecdsl, so regen with rsa) -- David C.

No its a laptop a DV6000 and some of the desktops can be logged into as root but not all so its not entirely permissions. In any case I did not change anything. I checked permissions in /usr/bin all 755 rwxr-xr-x Ditto for kde3 opensuse 11.4 but then its an old laptop and the Dell has no such problems. not sure where to look it trys to log in then immediately jumps out to the log in screen CWSIV ____________________________________________________________ Doctor Reveals 3 "Death Foods" You Need To Avoid This Summer Nucific http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL3131/59b3e9174838a69156febst03duc -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I checked and confirmed those settings. Other list advised changing from GDM or even uninstalling it. As repos are down I merely changed the display_Manager and rebooted and each failed. So after a few hours I created a new user on the HP and that one can log into any and all of the window managers. So it seems I am on a treasure hunt in the Undocumented Enchanted forest of dot files and dot directories but at least I know now its not a system file under / or a permissions issue.

I checked these settings are what I have. I created a new user and it has no problem using any chosen desktop. I also tried changing the display manager from gdm to the others no change in the problem. so its some unknown config file creating the problem. Where can I go to find the answer as the web does not have one????? CWSIV On Sat, 2017-09-09 at 19:31 +0200, Carlos E. R. wrote:

Maybe... if the configuration of one desktop is bad or corrupted :-? -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)

That will isolate it to a config file (or the last select group of configs). If doing it in groups, you could narrow it down from the group to one config file by creating yet another new user, then dragging one config at a time from that isolated group.
