Description Leah R. M. Cunningham 2002-09-26 08:24:52 UTC 
In the KDM window the root user looks like:

 ______
| root |
| root |
 ------
Comment 1 Adrian Schröter 2002-09-26 14:41:11 UTC 
it is intentionaly. "root" is also the full name. maybe we should rename the 
account in later versions.
Comment 2 JP Rosevear 2008-08-25 18:08:55 UTC 
Still exists
Comment 3 JP Rosevear 2008-08-25 18:09:31 UTC 
This is not a KDE issue.
Comment 4 Cyril Hrubis 2008-09-04 10:43:17 UTC 
Root account is created as a part of installation, moving to the yast team.
Comment 5 Ladislav Slezák 2008-09-04 11:46:01 UTC 
Jiri?
Comment 6 Jiří Suchomel 2008-09-04 11:50:11 UTC 
_If_ the root account should not have a full name, someone else must decide.
Comment 7 Ruediger Oertel 2008-12-08 00:11:08 UTC 
for the display manager, it is usually configurable if and which system
users should be shown at all.
For the name field in passwd for the "root" user: I guess this is too
much about personal preference (I often name mine something like
"`hostname`_root" or something like that)
