I am running kubuntu 11.10,
(kde 4.7.4 i believe)
I created a new account to test some settings that I plan to change in
the skeleton, and default settings sections for KDE.
I went to the KDE system settings, and created a new account.
I set the password.
I then went to switch user, and chose to log in as that new user.
It prompted me to change my password, (which is also a bug that there is no
place to change this behavior)
and would not accept my text input.
It eventually timed out and went back to my other locked session.
I will be trying it from the main login in a second, but I worked arround it by
logging in with the control-alt-f1 and inputting a new password, then I was
able to login.
(I then recorded a video on how to change the kde settings to make it work on
a netbook because it does not work out of the box)
I created another account, and it also had the same initial password
problem. I will be testing this after logging out to see if it is a
problem with having multiple x sessions.
I clicked on the field and typed, waited, waited, typed, waited... I
did get it to come up once...
I think because it did accept text once that it might be a minor
security vulnerability.
