--- Comment #34 from Dennis Olsson 2011-06-27 20:09:18 CEST ---
The following work-around works under openSUSE 11.4:
cd /usr/share/kde4/apps/kdm
mv read_sysconfig.sh read_sysconfig.sh-orig
rm -f /var/adm/kdm/kdmrc.sysconfig
This, naturally, inhibits changes made to "/etc/sysconfig/displaymanager" to
take any effect, but at least
(kickoff) -> Configure Desktop (Personal Settings) -> System Settings -> Login
Screen
works as intended.
Taken into account that this bug is now over 4 (four!!) years old, it is about
time that it gets fixed -- for real.
The script "/usr/share/kde4/apps/kdm/read_sysconfig.sh" is really not worth
having around -- It is a hack, and a very bad one at that, and in its current
version it does not even handle the settings of variables in
"/etc/sysconfig/displaymanager" correctly, besides from ignoring the settings
from the KDE System Settings.
