Package: cryptsetup Version: 2:1.0.5-2 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Hi there,
usplash currently doesn't support a sane way to input passwords. The most appearent problem is that if you switch the VT, usplash quits and offers no possibility to enter the password for cryptsetup. Because of this, and the fact that usplash is used by default in ubuntu, the patch below was applied to ubuntu's cryptsetup package. It first makes sure that cryptsetup is started on a fresh and clean VT (see launchpad.net/bugs/58794 for details. Actually this is strictly only needed when run with upstart instead of sysvinit, I can resubmit it as seperate wishlist bug, if you prefer). Then it checks for a running usplash and if yes, it stops.
