Description Jeffrey Raloff 2013-01-19 17:08:30 UTC
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:18.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/18.0

Though I had this bug through several versions all of which I downloaded off the net and including beta 12.3; it is now gone in version 12.2 [64bit] on the free disk from Linux Magazine. Don't know what they did, but glad to see it gone.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Download openSUSE from web and create disk to load.
2.Load operating system
3.System works fine except for the bug
Actual Results:  
AS stated, the 12.2 64 bit version given out by Linux Magazine did not produce the bug. Also I want to note that openSUSE is the only linux distrbution out of several I have tried that actually sets the number key pad on upon boot [ which I want]. 

Expected Results:  
IT boots the first time with correct password.

Let me guess:
- you are using KDE (and KDM as login manager)
- the second character you type is ignored (no dot shown)

Is my guess correct?

That's the well-known bug 728554 - unfortunately not fixed yet. The interesting question is why the DVD from Linux Magazine does not show the bug...
