[SOLVED] Login in TTY and loading X fails after update

PhotonX · 2020-08-21 09:35:45

Hello everybody,

I am running an up to date Arch stable with Xorg and no graphical login manager. The install is quite old (at least 6 years) but I didn't have any major update problems for a very long time.

After yesterday's update, however, the boot fails. The TTY shows the line "Module is unknown" as the only message and flickers every few seconds, possibly trying and failing to load Xorg. When switching to a different TTY and trying to log in, it asks for username and password, but then tells me "Login incorrect" both for my user and the root user.

I will flash a USB drive to boot from it and get access to the hard disk and look into the logs, but possibly somebody already has some ideas what might have gotten broken with just the symptoms?

Thanks for any input!

P.S.: Here are some logs:

P.P.S.: Problem is solved by downgrading pam and pambase:

[2020-08-21T12:27:43+0200] [ALPM] downgraded pambase (20200721.1-2 -> 20190105.1-2)
[2020-08-21T12:27:43+0200] [ALPM] downgraded pam (1.4.0-3 -> 1.3.1-2)

Probably a bug in pam, am I the only one to experience it?

P.P.P.S.: Looks like this bug: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/67636 Will try what is proposed in the comments and report back.

P.P.P.P.S.: So I substituted /etc/pam.d/login with /etc/pam.d/login.pacnew and the problem looks solved.

Hi,

Same problem on my end.
Reinstalling pam don't do anything.

Replacing /etc/pam.d/login with /etc/pam.d/login.pacnew solved the pb too.

Thank you
