apport information

** Tags added: apport-collected natty

** Description changed:

  On one my Ubuntu Natty system, I have a very simple X11 GUI setup : just
  plain xdm and icewm (and no PulseAudio)
  
  After one reboot, I noticed that audio devices are inaccessible in GUI session.
  I looked into PAM configs and found that /etc/pam.d/xdm includes pam.d/common-session which contains this line :
  
  session optional  pam_ck_connector.so nox11
  
  common-session config file was modified on Jun 02nd, and I checked in
  dpkg logs that on this day, libpam* packages were upgraded from
  1.1.2-2ubuntu8 to 1.1.2-2ubuntu8.3 . Actually, this 'nox11' option could
  be brought in on upgrade from Maverick to Natty , I am not sure when,
  because the system was not rebooted at that time and continued to run
  with Maverick kernel & xdm long after that.
  
  Somewhere in Gentoo forums I read that you have to remove 'nox11' from
  xdm PAM config. So I juts had to add the line after include statement :
  
  @include common-session
  session optional pam_ck_connector.so
  
  after doing that and restarting xdm, I have audio access in my X11
  sessions back again.
  
- probably this specific has to be reflected in xdm PAM configuration
- included in its package, and not require additional manual configuration
- by the end-user.
