We can not type in our full name

Please provide any additional information below.
We use LDAP as user authentication method.
I can hack database to input our full name.

same here, we are using the "ldap" setting as well.

another thing, as a pretty convenient workaround we just populate the Full Name field from our LDAP automatically using this in gerrit.config:

[ldap]
  accountFullName = ${cn}

See the description of ldap.accountFullName in the help: http://gerrit-documentation.googlecode.com/svn/Documentation/2.2.2/config-gerrit.html#_a_id_ldap_a_section_ldap

"If set, users will be unable to modify their full name field, as Gerrit will populate it only from the LDAP data."

There's a default, so you need to explicitly set it to nothing if you want to use ldap, but allow users to set their names.
