Does /etc/gdm3/custom.conf contain any non-ASCII characters? Can you
attach it here?

Title:
correct password occassionally not accepted on start up. Will usually
work after several attempts and/or reboot.
Status in gdm3 package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
ubuntu 20.04
3.36.8
(I typed 'apt-cache policy pkgname' into terminal but the answer I
received was: 'N: Unable to locate package pkgname')
Correct password is not accepted until several attempts are made.
The password is definitely correct. Have verified this. When this
problem occurs, another problem also occurs, where the password
displays without being concealed as it is typed. After typing the
same password in several times, it will work. Rebooting also often
seems to temporarily resolve the problem. The issue comes up
sporadically, perhaps once every twenty times I try to log into
ubuntu.
