Hi, I'm not sure this is an exact duplicte of bug 1716159 (I saw it
before reporting here). It's right, today I checked, if I enter û in the
gdm login field, it writes u, but :
- this was also the case since early alpha testing of Ubuntu 17.10, I
already had the same password, only since update of 10th March 2018 it
is refused. And when I chose it, on the live USB installation, was the
French alternative keyboard selected, so I'm sure it was with the accent
(I checked again, typing one with û and one with u gets an error on 2
passwords not matching).
- In this case, modifying the password in recovery session should have
allowed me to login again (which I could in terminal only the very first
time I had this bug, so modification was successful, after ,I have no
access to console), but not...
Something specifically changed between mid-February and 10th March
making login impossible with my "û" containing password and forcing me
to reinstall...
