Comment 17 for bug 270781

Hi Vincent, hi Tomas,
Thanks for the quick feedback. Here's the data requested:

$ cat /etc/pam.d/system-auth
#%PAM-1.0
auth required pam_shells.so
auth required pam_unix.so likeauth nullok try_first_pass
auth optional pam_ecryptfs.so unwrap
auth required pam_nologin.so
#
account required pam_unix.so
#
password optional pam_ecryptfs.so
password required pam_passwdqc.so min=disabled,8,8,8,8 passphrase=0 enforce=users
password sufficient pam_unix.so remember=8 nullok use_authtok md5 shadow
password required pam_deny.so
#
session required pam_limits.so
session required pam_unix.so
password optional pam_ecryptfs.so unwrap
session optional pam_console.so
[snap@thoth ~]$

I'm using local authentication.
This problem happens daily.

Later I'll try to find in which case it starts happening. When the problem starts I think only a reboot solve it (I'll check later if a logoff/logon is a workaround or not).

Glibc version is 2.9.3

$ rpm -q glibc
glibc-2.9-3.i686
$

I don't think that will affect the text console (I'll get back to you with other details if available).

Please tell me what else can I do to help you in this case. Again, thanks a lot for the feedback.
