[Bug 1047344] New: SDDM openSUSE Theme -- if more than 7 users are defined, the user list for login is not displayed
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1047344 Bug ID: 1047344 Summary: SDDM openSUSE Theme -- if more than 7 users are defined, the user list for login is not displayed Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 42.2 Hardware: x86-64 OS: openSUSE 42.2 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Release Notes Assignee: sknorr@suse.com Reporter: bugrprt21882@online.de QA Contact: lnussel@suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- If the system has more than 7 users, the left-right scrollable SDDM list of users usually displayed by the SDDM openSUSE Theme, is not displayed -- not even a text list of names without any avatars. The Username has to be entered without any help from the list (usually with avatars) which is normally displayed. -------------------------------------------------------------- The issue seems to be caused by the SDDM "add-threshold-to-disable-avatars.patch" which has introduced the "DisableAvatarsThreshold" [Theme] parameter -- it hasn't yet been documented in the "sddm.conf" man page but, if DisableAvatarsThreshold=<Number greater than the number of users> is included in the [Theme] section of "/etc/sddm.conf" the issue disappears. -------------------------------------------------------------- Looking at the SDDM patch, the default value of "DisableAvatarsThreshold" is '7'. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

this intentional. The list is not usable with too many users. No need to put that in the release notes.
Does this mean that, the "disable avatars" threshold removes the login user list completely, regardless of where the users are defined (locally via passwd or remotely via NIS or LDAP)? Come to think of it, I've noticed this discussion somewhere else about a year ago . . . ;-) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
