Depending on your system architecture, you can either remove the plugin itself 
pam_face_authentication.so

The nicer method would be to call pam-auth-update for example and deactivate 
it. Or if you've enabled by editing files in /etc/pam.d simply delete the 
corresponding entries in gdm, gnome-screensaver, etc...

Try removing the line "auth sufficient pam_face_authentication.so" of the files 
/etc/pam.d/gdm and /etc/pam.d/gnome-screensaver

I hope this works for you

I've installed pam-face-authentication, but it didn't want to let me in, so 
I've uninstalled, removed the line, but now it says there is a critical KDM 
error. From CLI i can log in, but I can't from KDE, because - as the log says - 
the wrapping key is incorrect...
I made a new user, it did the same. Any idea?

Sorry, no problem. I had to remove line "envfile=/etc/default/locale"

I could finally disable pam-face-authentication.
Reading again installation istructions, I remembered what I did. Then, I 
removed the first line ("auth sufficient pam_face_authentication.so") in these 
four files:
/etc/pam.d/su
/etc/pam.d/sudo
/etc/pam.d/gdm
/etc/pam.d/gnome-screensaver

Please note this is not really uninstalling, but rather disabling it.

i am really disappointed!
i tryed this, not working due to some errors on xml parsing.
NO WAY to access to my OS after installing.
I try to use the shell login, not working with my user, cause the face login 
throw the XML error. root user does not have the plugin installed, but in my 
system (Ubuntu 10.4) root was disable by default.
Only way to boot with the cdrom, go to the hard disk of my system (something 
like /media/<yourdisk>) and remove the line 
"auth sufficient pam_face_authentication.so enableX"
in the files:
/media/<yourdisk>/etc/pam.d/common-auth
/media/<yourdisk>/etc/pam.d/sudo

I understand your frustration, The only reason you would have an XML error is 
you tried the svn version without cleaning the 0.3 version models. SVN version 
is experimental and we still have not committed the code to make it backward 
compatible.  If this was not the case, I am curious to know what the errors 
were.

Also adding to common-auth is disastrous! I would advise adding it to specific 
services like sudo,gdm etc

To remove and not only disable:
Uninstallation

In order to remove pam-face-authentication from your system, just do the steps 
in reverse order. First you have to deselect the plugin, then remove the PAM 
config file and lastly the package itself. sudo pam-auth-update --package 
face_authentication
sudo rm /usr/share/pam-configs/face-authentication
sudo apt-get remove pam-face-authentication

sudo rm /usr/share/pam-configs/face-authentication
"cannot remove `/usr/share/pam-configs/face-authentication': No such file or

sudo apt-get remove pam-face-authentication worked

Cleaned using Janitor

Removed antonio.chiurazzi

Will report back if I can login

Addendum
Can login normally now

It is a pity that the face recognition crashes when it fails.
