On my clean install of suse 9.3 I get the green login screen (KDE) where I enter username and password. How can I change this to show certain users with the icons as in previous versions? The KDE website says to select "show users" in control panel, but I don't see that option.

Edit /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager as user root and change then entry DISPLAYMANAGER_KDM_THEME="SUSE" to DISPLAYMANAGER_KDM_THEME="" To accomplish this, you have two possibilities: 1. Use YaST2 sysconfig editor: * Start YaST2 * Go to 'System' -> '/etc/sysconfig Editor' * Open: 'Desktop' -> 'Display manager' -> 'DISPLAYMANAGER_KDM_THEME' * delete SUSE * Click on finish 2. With an editor of your choice. You don't need to start a graphical session as root, just follow these few steps: * Press ALT+F2 -> type konsole -> and press run * Type su - and press Enter * Enter the password for the user root (please note, no * or other signs will be displayed) * Load the file with your favorite editor (for more information please have a look at ASCII Editors (http://portal.suse.com/sdb/en/2002/06/thallma_ascii_editor.html) ) * Change DISPLAYMANAGER_KDM_THEME="SUSE" to DISPLAYMANAGER_KDM_THEME="" * After you have made these changes, save the file, exit the editor and run the command SuSEconfig --module kdm3 -- Paul Cartwright Registered Linux user # 367800 X-Request-PGP: http://home.comcast.net/~p.cartwright/wsb/key.asc
