[gentoo-user] kde 'Lock Sesson' does nothing

[gentoo-user] kde 'Lock Sesson' does nothing

[James]

Hello,

I/ve tried rebuilding all sorts of stuff. Nothing
get's this working again, in the kde pull down menu.


Any ideas what to rebuild?

revdep-rebuild is clean.

I don't use KDE much, so please forgive me if I'm barking up the  
wrong tree here, but couldn't this be caused by an incorrect  
configuration? I would create a new user & see if it works for them.

I went through something similar once. KDE informed me there was no greeter
configured. So it simply refused to lock the session. I then did something
about gdm (yep, even though I use KDE I prefer gdm) and it started working.

Yep. That's what fixed it to me. I re-emerged my *dm and it started working.
In my case: gdm.

When I got the no greeter message, reemerging kdm fixed the issue.
