http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=544314 Summary: su requires root password on gnome livecd Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: vuntz@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de CC: cthiel@novell.com, binner@kde.org, rastislav.krupansky@gmail.com, vuntz@novell.com, captain.magnus@opensuse.org Found By: --- This was mixed in bug 537343, which is about another (similar issue). See various comments: What i noticed in M8, the root password is required by live installer - /sbin/yast2 live-installer on LiveCD. Reproducible on real harware and in VMware. [...] However, calling "su" itself asks for the password too. So I guess it's expected that gnomesu has the same behavior? [...] Just tested the 11.1 livecd and indeed, "su" doesn't ask for password. I'll clone this bug for Christoph's issue. -- 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.
