After we upgraded our CentOS 7.0 desktops to CentOS 7.1, a critical
error in the graphical login screen has appeared on all 7.1 machines:
We have 100+ users defined in /etc/passwd, and a list of names is
presented on the initial login screen. However, it's impossible to
scroll up or down in
Can you use the page-down and arrow keys to navigate the list? Which Display
Manager ( [kxg]dm ) are you using? Try a different one if the keyboard
navigation does not work.
No, page up/down and arrows don't work either.

I think that you can exclude usernames from the list on Centos 6
by making their user number less than 500.
That doesn’t help me, as I have no users defined in the /etc/passwd
file, and the UIDs are defined in a corporate database that match
the employee number.
You can (also) exclude

Nice to know I'm not the only one that tries to use system facilities
the way they were intended to work and has problems. Maybe if you touch
the bug report so they know I'm not the only one the folks will look and
elevate to RH bug just like they used to do? I was surprised that

I mentioned two other workarounds myself. I prefer to wait for the
upstream bug to be solved:
The thread on the CentOS 7.1 user login screen reminded me of a small nagging
issue I have on CentOS 6. We are using a Windows AD backend to authenticate
