[Bug 669657] New: Functionality "switch user" became unreliable.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=669657 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=669657#c0 Summary: Functionality "switch user" became unreliable. Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.3 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE4 Workspace AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: Markus.Elfring@web.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- I would like to use the function "K-menu -> Leave -> Switch User" in an easy way again. (The system setting "DISPLAYMANAGER" contains the value "kdm".) 1. But I get a notification "Desktop sessions -> New session" which seems to ask for an acknowledgement. 2. If I press this green button (with white arrows), it takes a while until I see something on my screen. 3. I see that my screen is mostly locked with my screensaver running already. 4. I do not know the circumstances when I get the "luck" that a login dialogue is presented on a blue background for an alternative user. I hope that the involved software components will make the application of graphical user switching more convenient and safe. http://flavio.castelli.name/fast-user-switch-plasmoid-improvements -- 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.

If you disagree feel free to reopen. But it would probably be better to take it upstream to bugs.kde.org in this case. -- 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.
