Package: kdm
Version: 4:3.5.5a.dfsg.1-6
Severity: minor

If you go into KDE's control centre --> System Admin --> Login Manager:
click the 'Users' tab and turn on 'Sort Users' for the KDM graphical 
login, this will configure the alphabetical sort of users in the KDM 
login list.

On a rather vanilla install of Etch RC2, KDM doesn't appear to be 
respecting this setting, placing the user 'sheridan' before 'root'.

No amount of setting manipulation makes an impact in the KDM config 
file.  In fact, I copied the config file over to my Etch desktop (which 
is a 7 month old upgrade from Sarge) the same version of KDM respects 
this and sorts the list so 'root' comes before 'sheridan'

I checked the passwd files in case that KDM wasn't looking at this 
setting at all, however, in both files the root entry comes before the 
'sheridan' user entry.
