I upgraded last night b the 'change repositories' method just as I did for 11.2 -> 11.2. All went well. On completion I rebooted. New colours. No indications in the boot and RC activity of any problems. My LVM has been renamed ... /dev/dm-XX However when X comes up and the KDM login dialogue box appears I cannot log in with it. It looks OK and the pull-down shows all my installed desktops, KDE, E .... and offers shutdown and console as it should, but when I try typing a password nothing echoes. If I type my password 'blind', ignoring the no-echo, I still can't log in. I can log in at the console with all available IDS so its not a /etc/passwd problem This seems a problem localized to KDM I've looked at my /use/share/kde4/config/kdm/kdmrc and its the old one. No changes there. I don't see anything in /etc/pam.d for KDM, but even so, why would that affect the password echo? Suggestions as to what else to investigate ... /a -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
