This issue is super scary. As is KDM Code. I was running around in it all afternoon but could not find the cause.

Similar symptoms here on Kubuntu 11.04, 32bit. (This has only showed up when trying to demonstrate Linux to a Windows user, rather embarrassing.) The restart X server workaround didn't work for me, but the click ok on empty fields did on one occasion. Sometimes, the change token dialog is completely unresponsive, can't enter text in fields or click buttons. The login dialog is also disabled and greyed out, so it virtually locks up the machine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdebase-workspace in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/641712 Title: Not possible to enter password for a new user in KDM (Maverick) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-notes/+bug/641712/+subscriptions -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
[Bug 641712] Re: Not possible to enter password for a new user in KDM (Maverick)
I found another workaround to this. When the password prompt comes up, press OKAY (leaving it blank), it will then give an error that the password is blank and you will now be able to fill in the boxes. At this point the password MUST be different than the original. Occassionally, I have found while typing in the new password a second time, my laptop will lock up, but a hard reboot will allow you to try again and proceed to logging in. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdebase-workspace in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/641712 Title: Not possible to enter password for a new user in KDM (Maverick) -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

OK, I've propagated this from the 10.10 release notes. Please edit on the wiki if it's no longer accurate. * After a new user is created in Kubuntu systemsettings, they will be prompted to change their password when they log in for the first time. There is an issue that prevents the new password from being entered. In order to avoid this problem, the X server needs to be restarted before the new user logs in. After logout, click on the red logout button on the KDM screen and then click on Restart X Server. Once the KDM login screen returns, the new user should be able to log in normally.

Nevermind. I've replicated it. BTW, it looks like if you don't set a password at all, then you can at least enter the password. I gather those of you who've had this problem set an initial password in userconfig and then the user has to change it on first login? Additionally, if I restart the system then it works fine.
