what is this fixed in? I still get it with Unity 7.2.0 and xbmc 13.0. The only solution is to switch terminals, kill xbmc, then switch back to the lock screen, click on the indicator (which regains focus) and then click on the password text input.
If this is fixed by another bug then the bugs should be linked so that we can track the release. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.
