When I start x (using startkde), I get many many password prompts. I can only assume that the PAM module used for athentication by XFree86 is broken. Is the owner aware of this?

Hi!
I dunno if this is tooo tricky, but I added a single line to solved the
same question as yours. the xserver line...
X clive@cartier ~> tail -5 /etc/pam.conf
# tricky tricky forgive me
xserver auth sufficient pam_permit.so no_use
# If we don't match anything else, default to using getpwnam().
other auth required pam_unix.so try_first_pass
other account required pam_unix.so try_first_pass
