Public bug reported:
GNOME login window allows maximum 15 characters in the password field.
Why not give the same limit to the GUI, 'users and groups' or remove this limit?
Workaround:
Had to login in terminal mode and change my password (sudo passwd USERNAME) to
get back in.
Using Ubuntu 6.10
** Affects: gdm (Ubuntu)
Importance: Wishlist
Status: Confirmed
