kde4-config -v
kdm 4.4.80-4.5 login screen, menu and session buttons fail to respond

My workaround was to switch to gnome deasktop and window manager in /etc/sysconfig editor
gnome login manager works



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
with kde session/login manager

Actual Results:  
login works but the menu and session buttons do not


openSUSE 11.3 M7

Happens here too.

try middle click of the mouse :-)
Comment 3 Michal Ziabkowski 2010-06-10 14:15:53 UTC
Indeed, the middle click works. This is quite counterintuitive, as there is no indication that one should use it instead of the left click. And this behavior has changed just recently. Is this really intentional?

I'm certain it's not intentional.

Same issue here.
Comment 6 Telmo Xtra 2010-06-18 22:47:47 UTC
Same issue here (Version 4.5 Beta2).

Additionally if using system settings to change kdmrc parameters, the Unable to install new kdmrc file from /tmp/kde-root/kcmshellnS9587.tmp error appears.

Comment 8 Oswald Buddenhagen 2010-10-24 19:45:57 UTC
this works with current kde trunk and qt 4.7, while i was able to reproduce the issue before, so i assume it somehow got fixed.
