The reason looks like that GDM sets a superfluous command argument "en_US.UTF-8", and xinitrc script simply tries to invoke as is. FWIW, the command line passed to xinitrc is: /usr/bin/twm en_US.UTF-8 Since xdm doesn't pass such an argument, it could be a bug of GDM. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Bug 766789] New: Hotspot with GNOME NetworkManager: Automatically Setting WEP Encryption
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 18 Jun '12

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=766789 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=766789#c0 Summary: Hotspot with GNOME NetworkManager: Automatically Setting WEP Encryption Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 12.2 Version: Beta 1 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Network AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: taroth(a)suse.com QAContact: qa-bugs(a)suse.de CC: bili(a)suse.com, vuntz(a)suse.com, kkzhang(a)suse.com Found By: Documentation Blocker: --- +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #765333 +++ When creating an Ad-Hoc Network (Hotspot) with GNOME Network Manager, the encryption and the key are created automatically and shown in the Network settings dialog. As I learned by Bin Li in https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=765333#c5, this only happens for WEP, not for any other encryption methods. But an automatism which only works *selectively* (in this case, for WEP) is a usability problem: it raises user expectations which are not fullfilled in the end. If we have an automatism for setting an encryption method and generating a key, it should work as follows: automatically detect the abilities of the network card and then use the best possible encryption. Or (if that is not possible), IMHO it'sbetter to avoid the automatism completely and to prompt the user in the first place which encryption and key to use. Setting WEP automatically (no matter if a more secure encryption method like WPA would work, too) even leads to a false feeling of security on the user's side (since WEP is weak and rather unsecure). But if the system already selected an encryption, unexperienced users would normally trust the system's choice and not change it. Steps to reproduce: 1. Click the NM icon and select Network Settings > Wireless. 2. Click "Use as Hotspot" and confirm the pop-up, then enter the root password. Almost immediately, the following information is shown in the Network Settings dialog: * Security (WEP) * Network Mame (machine's hostname) and * an (automatically generated) security key You can change the automatically set options by clicking "Options" next to the "Hotspot" button and entering the root password to continue. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
