[Bug 49222] Re: Screensaver password dialog does not indicate keyboard layout
Update to the above: A different user on the same computer with standard keyboard settings has the problem too. No way the pass can be entered. And just to correct myself: Ctrl+Alt+Bcksp works better than a hard reboot... but is just as bad, IMO. -- Screensaver password dialog does not indicate keyboard layout https://launchpad.net/bugs/49222 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 31979] Re: Screensaver should allow selective random
I can confirm. I wasn't happy when I first saw this in Dapper. Checkboxes would be nice, as in the old times (was it breezy...) -- Screensaver should allow selective random https://launchpad.net/bugs/31979 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 49222] Re: Screensaver password dialog does not indicate keyboard layout
I think my problem is very related: I use a modified dvorak keyboard (as a non-english speaker) to avoid keyboard switching (with xmodmap). My password uses the same keys on both that and the default dvorak layout, which is the system default. However, when the screen locks, it refuses to let me back in no matter what I try. I consider this a very serious bug. I can confirm the bug directly too - when I have someone else using my PC, I need to xmodmap to their layout... but when the screen locks, we have a problem: I know the password, they know the layout. Hard- rebooting. -- Screensaver password dialog does not indicate keyboard layout https://launchpad.net/bugs/49222 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
