[email protected] changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #35 from [email protected] --- Same here, ### System * Fedora 44 KDE * Wayland * Issue started after upgrading to Fedora 44 ### Problem After the laptop has been **locked for some time** (especially after suspend), the **first password attempt on the KDE lock screen always fails**, even though I'm certain the password is correct. The second attempt succeeds with the exact same password. ### Things I've noticed * The problem **only happens on the KDE lock screen**. * It **does not happen on the SDDM login screen** after a reboot. * If I lock and immediately unlock the screen, authentication works on the first try. * The issue appears only after the screen has been locked for a while or after waking from suspend. * The most interesting observation is that if I **type my password, click the "show password" (eye) button, verify it is correct, and then press Enter**, it authenticates successfully on the first attempt every time. ### Logs The journal shows the first authentication being rejected by PAM: ``` kscreenlocker_greet: pam_unix(kde:auth): authentication failure unix_chkpwd: password check failed for user ``` A few seconds later, entering the same password succeeds. The suspend/resume sequence itself appears clean, with no kernel, GPU, or SDDM errors. ### What I've tried * Verified the password is correct. * Reproduced the issue multiple times. * Confirmed it only affects the lock screen. * Collected `journalctl` logs around the failed authentication. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
