Product: kdebase
Component: kdebase
Summary: Mandrake's new "kdm" is welcomed with extreme
displeasure
Version: 3.1-8mdk
Platform: Other
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: critical
Priority: P2
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I've openned this as a bug because I think it has real usability and security
problems,
and because there is an easy solution:
The new Mandrake "kdm" that removes the login text field, forces users to login in
only
if they are listed, and makes loging in a two-stage process is a big usability and
security
problem.
A good solution would probably be:
1) A mdkkdm package (that can be installed by default) that has this new kdm in it
(although, I surely hope that it is improved before it's used anywhere!)
2) The original unmodified (but it can be branded, as usual--we have no problem with
that) kdm being installed by kdebase, and used if mdkkdm is not installed.
Others have made plenty of comments in the cooker ML and can add comments here
as appropriate.
