Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.8.0) OS: Linux I created a new user via "User management" in systemsettings. But when I switch to this user KDM promts me that I have to enter a new password (root enforced), I click ok and a field appears where I can enter my password twice. Unfortunately it doesn't work (no dots are showing and I can't tab to switch between them). Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a new user via systemsettings 2. Set a password for him via systemsettings 3. Switch User 4. Try to login as the new user 5. Try to enter a password Actual Results: Field appears but not usable Expected Results: A usable field where one can enter a password (and dots are showing :) )
There's a general issue with input focus in kdm's dialogs. See the other bug report for a workaround. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 338018 ***
