Глава 3. Окно входа в систему

Интерфейс kdm включает два диалоговых окна. Компоненты основного окна:

  • Widgets allowing you to authenticate. When the "classic" authentication method is chosen, these are:

    • Поле Имя пользователя -- для ввода имени пользователя.

    • Поле Пароль - для ввода пароля.

  • (Optionally) a list containing entries with the name and graphical image of each user (for example, a digitized photograph). Clicking a list entry is equivalent to typing the associated username into the Username: field.

  • (Optionally) a region to the right of or above the authentication area which can be used to display either a static image or an analog clock.

  • По нажатию на кнопку Войти система проверяет имя пользователя и пароль и при отсутствии ошибок запускает сеанс выбранного типа.

  • Кнопка Меню открывает меню со следующими пунктами:

    • (Необязательно) Элемент тип сеанса используется, чтобы выбрать тип запускаемого сеанса (окружение рабочего стола или диспетчер окон). См. Глава 8, Поддержка множества диспетчеров окон, чтобы узнать, как настроить разные типы сеансов.

    • (Optionally) A Authentication Method item to switch between different authentication methods like the classical username+password, smartcard, biometry, и т.д.. The actual authenticators are combinations of PAM modules and matching frontend modules («conversation plugins»). See PluginsLogin.

    • (Optionally on local displays) A Switch User... item to switch between local sessions running on different virtual terminals of this computer.

    • (Optionally on local displays) A Restart X Server item that terminates the currently running X-Server, starts a new one and displays the login dialog again. You can use this if the display content seems to be broken somehow.

    • (Optionally on remote displays) A Close Connection item that closes the connection to the XDMCP server you are currently connected to. If you got to this server through a host chooser, this will bring you back to the chooser, otherwise it will only reset the X-Server and bring up the login dialog again.

    • (Optionally on local displays) A Remote Login item that displays a host chooser dialog with XDMCP servers one can log into remotely.

    • (Optionally on local displays) A Console Mode item that terminates graphical login and leaves you at the console. See ConsoleTTYs and ServerTTY.

    • (Optionally) A Shutdown... item that displays the Shutdown dialog box.

The Shutdown dialog box presents a set of buttons that allow one of these actions to be executed:

Turn Off Computer

Выключить систему.

Restart Computer

Shut the system down and reboot. For systems that use Lilo or Grub, an optional drop down box allows you to select a particular operating system to be used for the reboot.

Schedule...

If this option is enabled, you may use it to enter a more complex shutdown dialog. See ScheduledSd for details.

Pressing the Cancel button returns to the main kdm dialog box.
