So far I've tried root, linux, opensuse, novell, gnome etc and none of 'em working. Also tried changing password but its not working either as it changes password for user "linux" not "root". - jags / March 18, '09 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. -- 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.
