[Bug 346759] New: KDESU: No longer accepts root password
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=346759 Summary: KDESU: No longer accepts root password Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: linux@sdprice.plus.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Customer After a period of using SuSE 10.3 (and installing various packages) I have ended up in the situation where kdesu no longer accepts the root password with: "Incorrect password; please try again" I can happily run su from the command line (using root password); but am unable to get kdesu to accept the same password. This has now been seen on 2 totally different machines, both running SuSE 10.3 GM. Unfortunately, I'm not sure when kdesu stopped working. I'm pretty sure it worked just after the virgin install. All installed packages came from the approved repositories (i.e. those provided in 'community repositories' yast2 dialog) -- 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.
