Description William Shotts 2002-04-07 14:01:25 UTC

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i586; en-US; rv:0.9.9) Gecko/20020401

Description of problem:
While using user manager in KDE, I cannot create more than one account per
session of the program.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Log in as root in KDE
2.Start user manager
3.Create an account
4. Attempt to create a second user
	

Actual Results:  Pressing the new user button on the toolbar does not bring up
the entry dialog.  You must quit the program and restart it to add another user.

Expected Results:  New user entry dialog should appear after new user button is
clicked.

I just tested it in Gnome, it works fine there.    
    
This appears to be a duplicate of Bug 62308 where KDE window manager is not    
honoring WM hints.  redhat-config-users works fine in KDE, except the new Add  
User dialogue is appearing beneith the main window the second time you use it.  
  
If this is in fact a duplicate, then this is a kdebase component bug.

Comment 2 Brent Fox 2002-04-08 15:17:34 UTC
bshotts, are you running the program from the command line?  If not, try doing
that.  Perhaps there is a traceback or error message that you can't see if you
run it from the menu.

Also, you should upgrade to
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/rawhide/i386/RedHat/RPMS/
Fileredhat-config-users-1.0-10.noarch.rpm

since I've fixed some bugs since 1.0-8.  Does 1.0-10 make the problem go away?

Comment 3 Brent Fox 2002-04-08 20:04:16 UTC
Correction, grab redhat-config-users-1.0-11 instead.

Comment 4 William Shotts 2002-04-08 23:25:33 UTC
redhat-config-users-1.0-10.noarch.rpm (11 not on the rawhide site) fails to come
up with the follwoing error messages:

redhat-config-users (pid:1672): Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by Xlib

As to the original error, warren is correct, the user dialog appears
under the application window.

Comment 5 Warren Togami 2002-04-09 00:58:52 UTC
How long does it take for new packages to reach rawhide?
redhat-config-users-1.0-11 is not there yet.  subversion 10 is indeed broken
with the same error above.



Comment 6 Brent Fox 2002-04-09 14:06:10 UTC
It usually appears the next day.  redhat-config-users-1.0-12.noarch.rpm is there
now.  Can you give that a try?

Comment 7 Warren Togami 2002-04-09 18:13:58 UTC
tested -12.noarch.rpm.  It no longer crashes like -10.noarch.rpm, but it doesn't
fix the original problem that is most likely the KDE window manager not
acknowleding WM hints in Bug 62308.

Comment 8 Brent Fox 2002-04-09 18:29:07 UTC
Ok.  At the very least, we tracked down some bugs in redhat-config-users...they
just weren't bugs related to this particular problem.  I now agree that the
behavior here is a KDE problem.  The New User window appears on top the first
time.  But every time you launch the window after that, it appears under the
parent window.

I'm going to dupe this against bug 62308
