I ran a 'yum upgrade' on my test 3 portable Thursday night.
Since then
I've been unable to log onto the desktop. Console logins have not been
affected. I see the following error in /var/log/secure:

Well, the user is 'janina,' and not 'JANINA,' of course. Is it me? Is
there some way the desktop can be locked into caps-lock independently of
the caps lock key? Or some other issue? Down versioning gdm doesn't
help.
I'm seriously stuck on this one. I'm in Copenhagen to demonstrate the
new desktop accessibility features Monday and Tuesday. All help most
gratefully appreciated.

Janina:
William Murray also reported problems with the latest authconfig
packages. He recommends reverting to authconfig 5.3.7-1.
His description of his problem doesn't sound exactly like yours, but it
might be a good first step. Here is his report:
Hi guys,
I just updated my FC6T3 box, and it no longer starts gdm.
Last error in /var/log/messages:
heplnw8 gdm[2164]: no suitable security token driver could be found
This is with new authconfig 5.3.8-1
If I go back to 5.3.7-1 all is OK again...
