Which version of pam_usb are you running?

0.8.3

Which distribution are you using?

Fedora 37

Which login manager and desktop environment are you using?

Xfce 4.16, lightdm 1.32.0

What happened?

Attempts to check using xfce4-terminal does not work. The troubleshooting page asks to create an issue about this.

The expected result is a working setup and successful authentication.

Output of "pamusb-check --debug whoami"

@worf1337 I finally set up a fresh VM and tested a bit today. Seems I introduced a bug related to shortening DISPLAY when it contains the screen identifier.

Seems it's fixed now. See my screenshot, the marked areas, and compare with your screenshot.

Please try again with this RPM: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hkiam1pjzf9ga69/pam_usb-0.8.3-1.x86_64.rpm?dl=0
