Description Forgotten User PJpAC5DKqq 2008-10-21 06:09:55 UTC

If i enable that setting where users can login without password and choose just one user, KDE lets everyone login without it. Even root can login without password. Beta3.

If you configure it where?

Comment 2 Forgotten User PJpAC5DKqq 2008-11-04 15:56:55 UTC

Okay, seems this works totally randonmly. Now in beta4 it doesnt work for anyone.

And i dont get it why there are 2 places where you need to set up if you want use login without password. First are in KDE control secter, second are in YAst users settings. Why? 

Now i have configured it in both places, but it doesnt work. You need to give password in KDM loging.

I can confirm this for 11.1 final

When you enable passwordless login in kde4 Personal Settings -> Login manager it does not have any effect. Very few of these settings seem to have any effect. I cannot change which users to display on the login screen, cannot change the login theme etc.

If you set it in Yast -> User and Group Management -> Expert Options -> Login settings it works, but then it is on for all users, with no (easy) way of enabling it for only a few.

Comment 4 Lubos Lunak 2009-06-08 13:30:38 UTC

The yast module not being per-user for this setting seems to be a feature. KDM's control module not working well is bug #267903.
