Title:
Occasional login failure and artefacts
Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Login fails in spite of correct password - I've waited to report this
to rule out possible typos. The error occured over 50 times now and
happens more often when no network connection is available. Despite of
that it is hard to reproduce. Sometimes it occurs when network
connection is up. A sure sign of a situation when the password will
not be accepted is graphical artifacts at the login screen. These
vanish after failed attempt and normal login is possible at second
attempt - no failure occured then.
O.K., here's how to reproduce it: I changed my login manager to gdm and back
to lightdm
by using "dpkg-reconfigure lightdm" as root. The first time lightdm is in use
after that the artifacts show up and login is only possible at second attempt.
System in use here is XUbuntu 11.10, lightdm is 1.0.6-0ubuntu1.2.
Bug is possibly related to Bug #882955.
