Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Launch GNOME Control Center Users tab (gnome-control-center users) 2. Put something with a hyphen (-) in your Name (e.g. John Foo-Bar) 3. Log out and see the list of users at the login screen Actual Results: Any name with a hyphen (e.g. John Foo-Bar) is not displayed. Instead only login name is displayed Expected Results: All names, including those with hyphens and other special characters should be displayed. gdm-44.1-1.fc38.x86_64 Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome- shell/+bug/1841810/comments/4 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2023-09-07T10:30:45+00:00 dominik wrote: To avoid confusion: user login = username (i.e. what you type to log in) user Name = user display name (descriptive text about user, usually their name, a.k.a.
