Package: kdm Version: 4:4.4.3-1 Severity: normal since kde4, the kdm module of systemsettings does not offer any convenient way to gain administrative rights to change the kdm configuration. a very long time it was said, kde4.4 will do taht again -- but after yesterday's update, that brought kde4.4, it's still impossible.
according to > http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=151669#c137 the module should - allow changing settings - ask for root authentication via dbus/policykit when hitting "apply". however, the kdm module does not allow the change anything nor is the "apply" button active. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32.3 (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_DK.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_DK.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages kdm depends on: ii consolekit 0.4.1-4 framework for defining and trackin ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.32 Debian configuration management sy ii kdebase-runtime 4:4.4.3-1 runtime components from the offici ii kdebase-workspace-kgreet-plug 4:4.4.3-1 KDE greet libraries for authentica ii libc6 2.10.2-7 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libck-connector0 0.4.1-4 ConsoleKit libraries ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.24-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libkdecore5 4:4.4.3-1 the KDE Platform Core Library ii libkdeui5 4:4.4.3-1 the KDE Platform User Interface Li ii libkio5 4:4.4.3-1 the Network-enabled File Managemen ii libknewstuff2-4 4:4.4.3-1 the "Get Hot New Stuff" v2 Library ii libkworkspace4 4:4.4.3-1 library for the kdebase workspace ii libpam0g 1.1.1-3 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libqimageblitz4 1:0.0.4-4 QImageBlitz image effects library ii libqt4-svg 4:4.6.2-4 Qt 4 SVG module ii libqt4-xml 4:4.6.2-4 Qt 4 XML module ii libqtcore4 4:4.6.2-4 Qt 4 core module ii libqtgui4 4:4.6.2-4 Qt 4 GUI module ii libstdc++6 4.4.4-1 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 2:1.3.3-3 X11 client-side library ii libxau6 1:1.0.5-2 X11 authorisation library ii libxdmcp6 1:1.0.3-2 X11 Display Manager Control Protoc ii libxtst6 2:1.1.0-2 X11 Testing -- Resource extension ii lsb-base 3.2-23.1 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip Versions of packages kdm recommends: ii kde-window-manager [x-wind 4:4.4.3-1 the KDE 4 window manager (KWin) ii kdebase 5:59 the K Desktop Environment, base ap ii konsole [x-terminal-emulat 4:4.4.3-1 X terminal emulator for KDE 4 ii logrotate 3.7.8-6 Log rotation utility ii twm [x-window-manager] 1:1.0.4-2 Tab window manager ii xserver-xorg-core [xserver 2:1.7.6.901-3 Xorg X server - core server ii xterm [x-terminal-emulator 256-1 X terminal emulator Versions of packages kdm suggests: ii kdepasswd 4:4.4.3-1 password changer for KDE 4 -- Configuration Files: /etc/kde4/kdm/README changed: This automatically generated configuration consists of the following files: - /etc/kde4/kdm/kdmrc - /etc/kde4/kdm/Xaccess - /etc/kde4/kdm/Xwilling - /etc/kde4/kdm/Xsetup - /etc/kde4/kdm/Xstartup - /etc/kde4/kdm/Xreset - /etc/kde4/kdm/Xsession - /etc/kde4/kdm/backgroundrc This config was derived from existing files. As the used algorithms are pretty dumb, it may be broken. Information from these files was extracted: - /etc/kde4/kdm/kdmrc These files were directly incorporated: - /etc/kde4/kdm/Xaccess - /etc/kde4/kdm/Xwilling - /etc/kde4/kdm/Xsetup - /etc/kde4/kdm/Xstartup - /etc/kde4/kdm/Xreset - /etc/kde4/kdm/Xsession - /etc/kde4/kdm/backgroundrc Old files that would have been overwritten were renamed to <oldname>.bak. Try 'genkdmconf --help' if you want to generate another configuration.
