 |
|
Hi there,
Just installed 2004.2 on my new PC, and I'm having some issues with the amount of users logged in.
| Code: | chris@bender chris $ uname -a && w
Linux bender 2.6.8-gentoo-r3 #1 SMP Fri Sep 17 20:16:17 EDT 2004 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
09:37:23 up 1:12, 2 users, load average: 0.09, 0.16, 0.13
USER TTY LOGIN@ IDLE JCPU PCPU WHAT
chris pts/0 09:34 3:16 0.00s 0.37s kdeinit: kded <--- pts0? shouldn't this read :0?
chris pts/1 09:34 0.00s 0.01s 0.00s w
chris@bender chris $
|
On my other PC, I would see one user logged in for running X, and any users from a konsole window would not show up. ((Which is the norm, right??))
I don't know if this is a utmp issue, or a pam issue, etc. Suggestions are greatly appreciated. 
Here's some more version numbers if you need them:
| Code: |
root@bender chris # emerge -vp xorg-x11 kde pam shadow
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild R ] x11-base/xorg-x11-6.7.0-r1 -3dfx -3dnow -cjk -debug -debug -dlloader -doc -ipv6 -mmx +nls +pam -sdk -sse -static 7,622 kB
[ebuild R ] kde-base/kde-3.3.0 [empty/missing/bad digest]
[ebuild R ] sys-libs/pam-0.77 +berkdb -pwdb -(selinux) 3,551 kB
[ebuild R ] sys-apps/shadow-4.0.4.1-r3 +nls +pam -(selinux) -(uclibc) 795 kB

I don't see your prob. Here is my w output. I working with gnome and a multiplexed shell with 3 subshells. X=1 Multiplex Shell=1 subshells=3 => 1+1+3 => 5 Everything fine.
| Code: | root@stingray:linux # w

Its always reported it to me as one user. It would only show up as more if I logged in from a TTY not a konsole window...

Here, I have another sample...
| Code: | chris@bender chris $ w
09:51:08 up 4 min, 3 users, load average: 0.28, 0.17, 0.06
USER TTY LOGIN@ IDLE JCPU PCPU WHAT
chris :0 09:50 ?xdm? 11.16s 0.02s -:0 <<--rc.conf s/xdm/kdm (my mistake)
chris pts/0 09:50 44.00s 0.00s 0.19s kdeinit: kded
chris pts/1 09:51 0.00s 0.00s 0.00s w
|
I only have kde running and one konsole window... what is kdeinit:kded?
On all my other systems (including other gentoo boxen) do not show this behaviour... Here's my slackware laptop:
| Code: | chris@laptop chris $ w
09:53:01 up 2 min, 1 user, load average: 1.99, 0.68, 0.24
USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE JCPU PCPU WHAT
chris :0 - 09:50 ?xdm? 27.86s 0.02s -:0
|
I don't get it. Which machine is broken, or whats going on here?

Edit: logging into X appears as 2 users, and not one.

I ended up reinstalling and it seems to be fine now.

FYI it has to do with utempter: | Quote: | * sys-apps/utempter
Latest version available: 0.5.5.5
Latest version installed: 0.5.5.5
Size of downloaded files: 20 kB

Merge it or unmerge it whether you want that behaviour or not  |
