Specifying ranges is not equivalent to (KDM's, KDM3's, TDM's)
specifying selected users: SelectedUsers=myuser107,hisuser1266,heruser2030,otheruser315
or one could make the desired users id's fit a range and then specify that range :)
New users sure. Old users in a LAN dependent on NFS, how?
BTW sddm is also stupid and still shows disabled users too. It's shows everybody who ever worked in our company ...
Another thing. If you network/NIS does not work during boot-up then it shows no users. Regardless if NIS comes back to life. That's real fun without user text field.
Surely, sddm developers have only single user systems in their mind. sddm is the worst choice for a distro's default display manager.

If you are so reliant on some feature, why don't you write a bug report or feature request, or even better, pay someone who implements this feature you need?
All features exist in existing display managers ... I still don't get it how it could happen that such an annoying thing made it into openSUSE default installation.
Bug report is here now https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=994205
Feature request would be "Please don't fuck up things which are perfect already". I think this is to trivial to post.
BTW, you can just select a different theme and get a text field. But that would require you did a little bit of research, and would deny you the chance for a fine rant, heh?
Surely I'm able to configure whatever I want. So far I've never needed to configure such boring things like displaymanagers. It's just annoying to get such unusable default config.
It seems that your bug / issue is more related to kde then openSUSE, when you select the kde radio button you are getting the officially supported display manager for the kde desktop, to me this is sane and makes sense, if it doesn't work as you would like then thats really a kde issue for the kde bugtracker. If you select one of the lighter desktops in the openSUSE installer you will get the lightdm display manager rather then kdm or sddm in fact the only time you get sddm by default, is when you select the kde box in the installer. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adeliade Australia, UTC+9:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B
