Title:
  Screen freezes after typing first password character

Status in “unity-greeter” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After the boot process finishes, I see the login box from lightdm.
  The text cursor is blinking in the password box, the mouse cursor
  responds to the mouse and touchpad, etc.

  I type the first character of my password.  The text cursor stops
  blinking (so far, it always freezes *visible*).  The mouse cursor
  moves with the mouse, but nothing responds to clicks.  I can switch
  VTs using CTRL+ALT+F1 and so on, but no other key brings a response,
  even the power key.

  If I switch VTs away and back, the screen initially shows the lightdm
  screen but redraws to solid aubergine, and is blank other than the
  mouse cursor.  The mouse cursor continues to track mouse movement, and
  VT switching continues to work, but the X display remains unresponsive
  in every other way.

  For the past few days, this happens about 50% of login attempts.  More
  than a week ago, it never happened.

  This is on Precise.
