I installed Ubuntu-server 10.10 Maverick Meerkat in a VM and after applying all updates, installed LXDE. LXDE installed it's own display manager (lxdm), so I treid that first, no joy. It had the same problem of eliding white space in passwords as XDM under Lucid. I then installed xdm and removed lxdm. It worked! Passwords with embedded white space were successfully parsed in xdm under Maverick. I also wrote: > [...] so creating 500 > MB partitions takes almost 40 hours each. [...] Oops! Sorry 'bout the massive (3 orders of magnitude) typo. That's a 500GB partition that takes almost 40 hours to create using the "-cc" option. ron -- Ron Widell | Disclaimer, dat-claimer... r_widell at bwig dot net | if she's mine, I'll claim 'er. -- XDM elides whitespace in passwords https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/638137 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
