An image of the 'disallowed' popup: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=221463 Image here: http://imagebin.ca/view/6F5IZgQl.html I can confirm this. Using KDE 4.3.85 (r1067626). *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 183245 *** |
Version: (using KDE 4.3.2) OS: Linux Installed from: Ubuntu Packages To reproduce: - Open System Settings -> About Me - Click user image - Error message saying "Your administrator has disallowed changing your image." To fix: - Open System Settings -> Login Manager -> Users tab - Change "User Image Source" from "System" to "User, system" Expected behavior: - Default should be "User, system," not "System" Usecases where an administrator wants to restrict ability of users to alter their image are uncommon. "System" would probably only be used in large deployments like schools or enterprise settings.
