http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=626357 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=626357#c0 Summary: kupdateapplet authentication does not offer "remember password" Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.3 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE4 Workspace AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: carlos.lange@ualberta.ca QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Created an attachment (id=378937) --> (http://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=378937) actual pop-up window User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.2.6) Gecko/20100626 SUSE/3.6.6-1.2 Firefox/3.6.6 The updater applet uses a different authentication window (not kde-su) and there is no check box for remembering the root password, forcing the user to enter the root password every time. I need this feature, because in my lab I enter the root password once for a new student and subsequently he or she can perform the updates without knowing the root password. Reproducible: Always Actual Results: Pop-up window asking for "authentication" (not even a mention that root password is required). No check-box for remembering password. Expected Results: Window asking for "root password" (instead of authentication) and offering a check-box for remembering the password, as explained in the Start Up Manual p.45, Procedure 3.6/4. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
