One change happened in 11.2 with regard to 11.1: While kdm is scrambled, I only need to enter username in the top left hand corner. When the password field appears there, I now can wipe my finger to log in. This only works at the initial login. screenlocks are still completely dead. This is my workaround: klick OK at the "authentication method 'Generic'" popup. log in to KDE as normal user (using the scrambled kdm, with username and password in the top lefthand corner) switch to text console, log in as root there run yast to disable the fingerprint reader: # yast fingerprint-reader restart X server: # init 3 ; init 5 (now kdm should be fine again). re-enable fingerprint reader # yast fingerprint-reader switch back to KDE, TAB, TAB, SPACE, wipe finger, -> works Do this procedure after every reboot and after every X server restart. The trick is apparently: KDM has to be started while fingerprint reader is off. Then KDM (and screen lock later on) works as expected. -- 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.

I don´t really understand the purpose of your workaround though. If this workaround has to be executed _every_ time one logs in, a better way is to just disable the fingerprint reader. I am quite surprised that this bug is reproducible with every version of OpenSuse so far and hasn´t been mentioned/worked on before. As for me, this is a severe flaw in the operating system. At this time I am not able to provide much guidance, but I am more than willing to provide logs or anything else in order to getting this fixed.

Wow, this is a major oversight. Thanks for pointing it out - I may have damaged my FP-reader while experimenting. I think I'll just leave it disabled for now until things improve. With FP-readers becoming more common on laptops, I would think this bug would be given a high priority. Is there some technical reason why it's taking so long to get FP-readers working properly or is it a case of not enough resources and not enough priority given to the problem? -- 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.
