This bug seems to have some relationship with the ThinkFinger package and modifications to pam configuration, I had the following config in /etc/pam.d/system.auth - auth required pam_env.so auth sufficient pam_thinkfinger.so auth sufficient pam_unix.so nullok_secure try_first_pass auth requisite pam_succeed_if.so uid >= 500 quiet auth required pam_deny.so which prevented login via ssh ( not sure if it is correct ). The login attempt directly correlates with the battery monitor app crash, I have commented out the thinkfinger line at present to work around this.
