Hi Thierry, >> I made an accout with name "jürgen", password "jürgen" and the home >> directory is named "jürgen" too (for testing purpose only). >> >> Without tdm i.e. from a console I can login without any problems, but >> TDM-Login says "wrong password" > How is your keyboard setup (in TDE)? > > When I install, TDE defaults to US keyboard and I have to install the swiss > keyboard (Trinity Control Center -> Regional & Accessibility -> Keyboard > Layout). Of course you probably have it in German... AFAIK is this setting for the user when logged in and not for TDM to login. In tdm I set the language to german as well, but this only effects the messages shown. > Console keyboard is probably controled by your distribution's settings.

But you can set a > provisory password, change the keyboard, then the password. AFAIK only user names starting with a number are really forbitten and the user name is not the problem. It seems, that tdm dosn't like the Umlaut in the password. Fine regards Rolf
