Bug#505316: Is the "Choose kernel to boot" option activated *by default* in KDM?



severity 505316 normal
thanks

From my (rough) understanding, the feature the bug submitter refers to
is controled by the following in /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc:

[Shutdown]
BootManager=Grub

From what I see on my system (where kdmrc is heavily customized but
the default provided kdmrc is in /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc.dpkg-new, the
feature is *not* activated by default.

If that is true, I think it is much overflated to rate this bug as
release critical. It only deserves to be of severity "normal" with the
suggestion of documenting that the option is dangerous in the kdmrc
comments.

Therefore, I downgrade this bug's severity. If someone disagress with
me, please re-upgrade the bug but also please give a solid rationale.
