Hi @dgadomski Yeah, in a new installed version of Kubuntu 17.10 there is NO problem if the full-disk encryption is not ENABLED, however it also works if you do not install the Nvidia drivers for Kubuntu. This problem occurs when you decide to install Nvidia drivers for Kubuntu (as in my case) and have to set add nosplash for it to show the prompt to write your password before booting the OS.
If the user decide to set splash (GUI, to prompt password) then a black window will appear or you can not write the password or any character into the password prompt. How can I as a user help Kubuntu to solve this problem? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-384 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1721988 Title: Ubuntu 17.10 full disk encryption + Nvidia drivers not booting Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I've installed ubuntu 17.10 with full disk encryption and then installed the nvidia drivers (v 384). when I boot the computer I will get the graphics interface to enter the encryption key but the system will stop to work, like it has hang. Basically I'm not able to enter the password! I've to restart in safe mode to be able to enter the password for the encryption, after that I can just resume the boot and all works. There seems to be some issues with the initial boot screen and nvidia drivers... I'm not able to press any combination of Control+Alt+Fx key to get any extra info about what is going on (not able to get any text mode).
