[Bug 1005309] Re: KDM login fails with extended character password

[jhansonxi]

Seems like accented character sequences (dead keys) are enabled as it affects kdm and most everything in KDE.  The following are affected on a US keyboard:
~ (tilde)
` (grave accent)
' (apostrophe)
& (ampersand)
^ (caret)
" (double quote)

To generate these characters they need to be entered twice.  Really
annoying with passwords.
