entrance/e17 wtmp invisible login bug? "0 users"

Hi there,

I recently reinstalled arch on my note book (new drive woohoo) and decided to give e17 a good test-drive, since I haven't tried it for quite some time.

Anyhow, I used the packages in the AUR (e-cvs) to build and install e17, and so far, I am very impressed with both arch and e17.  Especially e17 has come a long way, arch just plain rocks with any window manager.

So onto my issue.

I am now using entrance to login to my system, and I am not sure if I set something up wrong, or if there is a bug w/ entrance, but it does not seem to record y login.

for example:

[rushforth@srmobile ~]$ w
12:05:27 up  1:17,  0 users,  load average: 0.09, 0.17, 0.14
USER     TTY        LOGIN@   IDLE   JCPU   PCPU WHAT
[rushforth@srmobile ~]$ last -10
reboot   system boot  2.6.20-ARCH      Fri Apr 27 10:47          (01:17)   
reboot   system boot  2.6.20-ARCH      Fri Apr 27 09:52          (00:54)   
root     vc/1                          Thu Apr 26 20:30 - 20:30  (00:00)   
reboot   system boot  2.6.20-ARCH      Thu Apr 26 20:29          (13:21)   
reboot   system boot  2.6.20-ARCH      Thu Apr 26 20:20          (00:08)   
reboot   system boot  2.6.20-ARCH      Thu Apr 26 19:36          (00:42)   
root     vc/1                          Thu Apr 26 19:35 - 19:35  (00:00)   
reboot   system boot  2.6.20-ARCH      Thu Apr 26 18:04          (01:31)   
root     vc/2                          Thu Apr 26 15:59 - down   (02:03)   
root     vc/1                          Thu Apr 26 15:56 - down   (02:06)   

wtmp begins Thu Apr 26 11:11:40 2007
[rushforth@srmobile ~]$

you can see in last, and in w, my user "rushforth" is neither logged in, or logged as have been logged in.  Top also says "0 users"..

So I am a little bit stumped..  I have checked my /etc/pam.d/entrance, at the moment, it is identical to gdm.

anyways, thx for anyone's suggestions or tips, long live arch!
