[Bug 615044] New: gdm greeter doesn't work without local users (e.g. NIS)
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=615044 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=615044#c0 Summary: gdm greeter doesn't work without local users (e.g. NIS) Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.3 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: vuntz@novell.com ReportedBy: lnussel@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- my system is configured for NIS so doesn't have any local users besides root. The gdm greeter in this case only shows a lone 'login' button and the waiting curser but is empty otherwise. Ie there is no way to enter a user name. Pressing the login button leads to X restart. Simply adding one local user makes the button to manually enter a user name show up. FWIW I used the minimal X selection+gdm for installation so no full gnome session available, only the pkgs that got installed via deps. -- 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.
