I believe this bug has regressed. I installed Lucid a few days ago, and my password worked correctly in Dvorak. (I am one of three users of the system and the only one to use Dvorak.)
After an update today, even though the keyboard layout selector says Dvorak, it will not let me log in until I type my password in QWERTY. -- gdm ignores keyboard layout selection for variants https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/421212 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
