Package: kdm Version: 4:3.5.9.dfsg.1-5 Severity: important kdm does not read (or may be ignore) settings from /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc and in the same time Loging Manager from Control center writes settings there.
To reproduce this bug one shoud. 1. Install and login KDE (3.5) 2. Go to K Menu / Control Center / System Administration / Login Manager 3. Enter Administrator Mode 4. Change Greeting to, for example 'New Welcome to Debian at %n' 5. Press Apply 6. Make sure, this option were saved in /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc: $ grep GreetString /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc 7. Restart X Server (Ctrl+Alt+Backspase) 8. See no changes in greet string As far as I can understand all the settings from /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc are ignored. Whis bug can be workarounded by manually changing /var/run/kdm/kdmrc, but less exprienced users would not be able to find this workaround... :-/ -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages kdm depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.22 Debian configuration management sy ii kdebase-bin 4:3.5.9.dfsg.1-5 core binaries for the KDE base mod ii kdebase-data 4:3.5.9.dfsg.1-5 shared data files for the KDE base ii kdelibs4c2a 4:3.5.9.dfsg.1-6 core libraries and binaries for al ii libc6 2.7-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.1-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libgcc1 1:4.3.1-9 GCC support library ii libpam-runtime 1.0.1-4 Runtime support for the PAM librar ii libpam0g 1.0.1-4 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libqt3-mt 3:3.3.8b-5 Qt GUI Library (Threaded runtime v ii libstdc++6 4.3.1-9 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 2:1.1.5-1 X11 client-side library ii libxau6 1:1.0.3-3 X11 authorisation library ii libxdmcp6 1:1.0.2-3 X11 Display Manager Control Protoc ii libxtst6 2:1.0.3-1 X11 Testing -- Resource extension Versions of packages kdm recommends: ii logrotate 3.7.1-3 Log rotation utility ii xserver-xorg 1:7.3+17 the X.Org X server Versions of packages kdm suggests: ii kdepasswd 4:3.5.9.dfsg.1-5 password changer for KDE ii khelpcente 4:4.0.0.really.3.5.9.dfsg.1-5 help center for KDE ii ksmserver 4:3.5.9.dfsg.1-5 session manager for KDE ii menu 2.1.40 generates programs menu for all me -- debconf information: kdm/stop_running_server_with_children: false * shared/default-x-display-manager: kdm kdm/daemon_name: /usr/bin/kdm -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
