Bug ID: 396191
Summary: Screen locker does not communicate kcheckpass failure
Product: kscreenlocker
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: greeter
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: k...@privat.broulik.de
CC: bhus...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
When the underlying authentication service breaks (e.g. network connection loss
for ldap login), there is no indication to the user other than "Unlocking
failed".
Plasma 4's lock screen would at least show "Authentication failed because the
underlying service isn't working correctly" (or something like this) so you at
least knew you weren't mistyping your password 10 times in a row.
In ConvPutAuthError it probably should emit error with a message instead of
just emitting failed
