Package: kdm Version: 3.3.2-1sarge1 Severity: minor The Greeter of kdm should show a list of users who may log in. It did not do so for me, I attach a copy of the file /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc as it was. (It is now called kdmrc.bu .)
The sub-window which should have shown user names (and possibly some pictures) was empty, and narrow. I tried using $ man kdm but that did not work. I tried installing doc-linux-html (version 2005.04-1), that did not help either. So I changed two lines in the file /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc as folllows: change from: SelectedUsers= ShowUsers=NotHidden to : SelectedUsers=rb,guest ShowUsers=Selected . This works alright, but now I have to alter the file kdmrc whenever I add a new user. Best regards Richard Betham
