Summary: Can't login into KDE4 Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: RC 1 Platform: 32bit OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE4 Workspace AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: registration@grek.tuffmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: ---
Hello,
I've upgraded my laptop from 11.0 to 11.1 RC1 using 32bit DVD. The biggest issue I've noticed is that login manager freezes if I choose to log into KDE4. It freezes as soon as I press enter key (after entering my password of course).
There is no such a problem with KDE3.
FYI: I use nvidia graphic card if it helps.
Personally, I rate this bug as between Major and Critical provided it's not only affecting me.

--- Comment #1 from Sven Burmeister sven.burmeister@gmx.net 2008-12-02 07:02:04 MST --- Does your .xsession-errors file tell you anything?
Did you have just packages from the 11.0 DVD + You updates, or did you use some 3rd party packages as well?

--- Comment #2 from Grzegorz Kossakowski registration@grek.tuffmail.com 2008-12-02 07:18:34 MST --- I've deleted previous .xsession-errors, rebooted my machine and made it to freeze. The .xsession-errors file is empty.
There were a few of packages installed from packman (but not related to KDE4 or KDE in general) and I've been using Factory version of KDE4 before I decided to upgrade.

--- Comment #3 from Alexander Lavirnenko lavrinenko_alex@mail.ru 2008-12-03 01:57:45 MST --- Same situation here. I use kdm4 and i can't login neither to kde3 nor to kde4 from it. Moreover, <ctrl>+<alt>+<bksp> twice kills kdm4, but it fails to restart. Doing 'rcxdm restart' from shell as root does not help - it just says 'stopping kdm...' 'starting kdm...' and does not switch to vt7. Manually killing kdm process and running 'kdm' as root restarts x11 on vt7 and allows to log in.

--- Comment #4 from Grzegorz Kossakowski registration@grek.tuffmail.com 2008-12-05 09:40:02 MST --- I can't log in to both kde3 and kde4 as well using my standard user. If I create a new user I can login to kde3 only.
Guys, this looks like a serious problem. Is there anyone taking care of such issues before 11.1 hits mirrors?

--- Comment #5 from Lubos Lunak llunak@novell.com 2008-12-10 03:47:43 MST --- I cannot reproduce. What does 'freeze' mean exactly? Can you kill X with double Ctrl+Alt+Backspace? Can you switch to text mode using Ctrl+Alt+F1? Can you connect remotely to the computer?

--- Comment #6 from Alexander Lavrinenko lavrinenko_alex@mail.ru 2008-12-10 05:05:19 MST --- 'Freeze' means after you input password and hit <enter> KDM freezes. This happens if pam_fp.so module is used in /etc/pam.d/common-auth (fingerprint support). Without this module everything is OK. Symptoms and consequences of freeze i've described in comment #3 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=450893#c3

--- Comment #7 from Grzegorz Kossakowski registration@grek.tuffmail.com 2008-12-10 14:19:38 MST --- I confirm that Alexander is right. After commenting out pam_fp module in common_auth I was able to log into KDE3 again.
There is another bug discovered: you can't disable fingerprint plug-in in Yast2 from command line.
Anyway, I still cannot log into KDE4 but this time it simply returns to KDM after a while. I'll attach Xorg.log and xsession-errors so others can have a look.
