Sort of! It doesn't fix the changes to the UI (i.e., there is no longer a list of users to select from; it is a username box where the "go back" button does nothing), but you can login by putting the username in by hand. That part is, obviously, the most important one. Is the issue here one of defaults (e.g., the wrong PAM profile being set), or one of detection (are smartcards a valid choice at all)? Potentially unrelated sidenote: setting `/org/gnome/login-screen/enable-smartcard-authentication` to `false` has no effect on the ability to login; it still refuses to allow password auth.
