Hello everyone.
I got myself into a situation, that I am not sure how it happened, and I can't seem to figure out how to get out of it.
When I log out of KDE, I don't get the usual, pop up that would ask me if I wanted to restart, shutdown or login as another user, I now only get logout and cancel, which then gets me back to the login manager, and when I choose shutdown it asks me for the root password. Also it does not allow me to login as root.
Does anyone know how to fix this, so that I can have the normal behavior, which would be any user can shutdown from kde and the root user should be able to login to KDE.
I am using Suse 8.2 and KDE 3.1
Thanks, jxr
Hi,
there is an option in the Login-Manager (you can find it in the control-center) under the tab "Shutdown": Allow Shutdown / Local: Everybody/Root/Nobody. Maybe it was turned to Root accidentally?
Also, you have to start KDE using the KDM-service and not just with startx.
hope that helps
Mike
