[Bug 333988] New: kde login manager --> users cannot choose custom account icon (32bit dvd)
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=333988 Summary: kde login manager --> users cannot choose custom account icon (32bit dvd) Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: ep1admin@physik.uni-wuerzburg.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- no matter what is set in kde system administration --> login manager --> users --> image source users just cannot select a custom user icon that gets displayed at login, the admin settings always override these user settings: security & privacy --> password & account --> "click the button to change your image" the image gets displayed here, but never shows up at the login manager. even explicitely "unsetting" the user-image as admin shows no effect. if that is done the default image is shown. when choosing a custom user image the .face.icon file is created in my home-dir and is world-readable. -- 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.

I couldn't test this, as 11.0 beta won't install using virtualbox (kde/gnome cds) -- 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.
