If you change /etc/kde4/kdm/kdmrc by setting these values, you can avoid this bug:
# Whether to grab keyboard and mouse while the greeter is visible. Grabs # may improve security, but make on-screen keyboards, etc. unusable. # "Never" - never grab # "IfNoAuth" - grab if the display requires no X authorization # "Always" - always grab # Default is IfNoAuth GrabInput=Always # Hold the X-server grabbed the whole time the greeter is visible. This # may be more secure, but it will disable any background and other # X-clients started from the Setup script. # Default is false GrabServer=true # How many seconds to wait for grab to succeed. # Default is 3 GrabTimeout=3 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/641712 Title: Not possible to enter password for a new user in KDM (Maverick, Natty and Oneiric) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-notes/+bug/641712/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
