Description Klaus Singvogel 2008-11-18 18:13:04 UTC 
Installed Beta5 with kde4 on x86_64.

Setup NIS during installation (don't know, if relevant).

After installation I did a 1st login with user "root", but kdm reported back:
"Root logins are not allowed."

This worked in Beta3 already.

PS:
I noticed in /var/log/kdm.log:
/usr/share/kde4/apps/kdm/read_sysconfig.sh: line 77: syntax error near unexpected token `fi'
/usr/share/kde4/apps/kdm/read_sysconfig.sh: line 77: `   fi'

Don't know, if relevant here?
Comment 1 Klaus Singvogel 2008-11-18 18:18:28 UTC 
I fixed above mentioned issue in "read_sysconfig.sh" and did a reboot.
Now I can login as root.

So the issue is restricted to:
- either 1st login screen after installation,
- or above missing ';' sign.
