This is most likely to happen when using Networkmanager or connecting via wifi. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use Networkmanager. Or use ifup with wifi. 2. Configure machine as NIS client via Yast. 3. Edit /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager and set: DISPLAYMANAGER="kdm" KDM_USERS="@users" DISPLAYMANAGER_KDM_THEME="" 4. Reboot machine Actual Results: The kdm greeter appears with only local users (if any) showing on the list. Wait some time and restart kdm by means of CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE. The user list is now full. Expected Results: The user list should appear populated from the beginning. I have added a quick patch that seems to fix the problem for me. I am not sure if it will work in all cases safely. -- 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.
