But, it is *not* possible to use the keyboard to do enter *anything* -- the keyboard is simply being ignored! The only possibilities are to use the mouse to click on "OK", which (naturally) results in "Authorization failed", or "Cancel", which brings you back to the login screen, where the keyboard functions normal. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install openSUSE 12.3. 2. Update system with newest updates. 3. Add KDE 4.12 repositories (see http://en.opensuse.org/KDE_repositories). 4. Update to KDE 4.12. 5. Remove "/usr/share/kde4/config/kdm/kdmrc" (this just to ensure that we are using a common default setup). 6. Run: systemctl restart xdm.service 7. Try to shutdown or reboot system using: Menu -> Shutdown (or Alt-S) -> Turn off (or: Restart Computer) 8. In pop-up window: Turn Off Computer: (or: Restart Computer) Root authorisation required: Password: <cursor> Notice that you *not* able to enter the required password -- Keyboard is dead! 9. With mouse click on: "OK" -> Authorisation failed "Cancel" -> Return to login screen, where keyboard works again! Actual Results: No able to enter root password in authorization pop-up window, when asked for it. Expected Results: Able to enter root password in authorization pop-up window, when asked for it, and thus being able to either restart or shutdown the system. Issue similar to reported issue in bug 819066 - Cannot enter "kwallet" nor "ssh" key during login with "ssh-add" turned on in "/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc". -- 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.
