[Bug 400851] Re: KdeSudo not longer accepts the password
I think I've got the same bug : kdesudo doesn't accept every passwords. When I choose a password starting with § (for example : "§kdesudo"), kdesudo says "invalid password". (but I can use sudo without problems) If I choose another one, it works...

I can confirm this bug with Kubuntu 10.10 too.

[Bug 400851] Re: KdeSudo not longer accepts the password
I have a similar problem. Just installed Kubuntu 9.10 on a toshiba satellite Kdesudo does not accept passwords at all. I do not have foreign characters in it. I only can use the admin password in the admin account. when I switch to a new user, I am not able to install or change the system, because it would not accept any admin password. even if I go to the terminal in that user account, neither su nor sudo nor kdesudo work cant launch any programs from the terminal that require password. any ideas?? -- KdeSudo not longer accepts the password https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/400851 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This bug still persists on karmic alpha 6. kdesudo doesn't work if your password contains specialcharacters like æ,ø or å.

[Bug 400851] Re: KdeSudo not longer accepts the password
I can confirm the presence of this bug in Kubuntu Jaunty. The problem
only manifests when using passwords with non-alphanumeric ("special"
characters) characters. Synaptic starts a kdesudo dialog which asks for
the password, but fails to accept it. Starting synaptic from the
command-line (sudo synaptic) works as expected.

[Bug 400851] Re: KdeSudo not longer accepts the password
I just formatted and re-installed Kubuntu 9.04... The operating system it's absolutely new now... But KdeSudo still does NOT accept the password, also once installed all current updates (to KDE 4.2.4, too) and restarting the OS. I can't access to the NTFS partition, unless I modify PolicyKit authorisations for mounting internal drives (for which there is not need to use KdeSudo), nor I can modify the software sources at KpackageKit, or the parameters of StartUpManager, or to start Kate using KdeSudo. Any applications using KdeSudo can't start or work properly as do not accept the password. However I can install programs normally using KpackageKit (and the same password, even by copy & paste). Therefore, it has nothing to do with to have used sudo previously, as I thought. It simply seems to be a KdeSudo bug. And, surprisingly, the OS worked fine for most a month, before starting to happen this bug. NOTE.- I have downloaded another Kubuntu 9.04 (i386) image and have checked its md5sum before burning it with K3b. It also burned Ok. Then I have checked the CD for possible errors before installing Kubuntu for the third time. Everything went Ok, but the same bug has appeared once again. Hardware: Laptop HP 6735b, AMD Turionx2 Ultra ZM80, 2Gb/160Gb.

[Bug 400851] Re: KdeSudo not longer accepts the password
Thanks. I will keep in mind your advices regarding how to associate the bugs with the appropriate package so it is sure it can be viewed by the right team. Otherwise, I tried to uninstall kdesudo then to run KpackageKit for changing software sources and it worked with su... the first time. Next times it does not open the window of the software sources. I then have re-installed KdeSudo. But it continues the same. Also kate not longer works if trying to use KdeSudo as the password is not longer accepted. I am considering to format and re-install Kubuntu 9.04, THEN to be very careful for NOT using sudo at all, anymore. But I think it shouldn't be this way... The system should not break just for using a normal linux command like sudo, whatsoever. -- KdeSudo not longer accepts the password https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/400851 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
