Has there been any update on this defect? I have a fresh install of Ocelot, and have the same outputs as Michael for * gnome-screensaver --debug * ls -l /etc/shadow * ls -l /dev/null
I have 4 layouts set up that I switch between using double-shift: * English (international AltGr dead keys) * English (programmer Dvorak) * English (US) * English (Dvorak) My default layout for the login screen is programmer Dvorak. If I lock the screen manually using Windows + L, and I type the same password (at least as far as keystrokes), regardless of the layout chosen, I cannot log in. However, if I click Switch User, I am back at the initial login screen, where my password works fine. Therefore, clicking Switch User and entering the correct password there seems to be a workaround. I can provide any other logs or information required as well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/872701 Title: Not possible to enter correct password after screen lock Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: STR: 1) Lock the screen 2) Move mouse to force password dialog to appear 3) Set correct keyboard layout and enter password 4) Returned to desktop AR: At step 3, no matter which keyboard layout I set (I have US and US-dvorak and toggle with double-shift) the password which I enter is never accepted. I am forced to switch to a tty, login there (with the same password) and `pkill -f gnome-screensaver` to get back to my desktop. Note: I use multiple layouts on another oneiric laptop and do not see this issue.
