[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1769416] Re: Can't login on 18.04 after entering wrong password
It's a fresh install, I am not upgrading from a previous version. As a matter of fact I installed Ubuntu 18.04 on two different computers and both behave the same way with the login screen: when I make a typo in the password, I can't login even if I type the correct password the next time. It just shows the wallpaper / background but nothing happens. By the way, the above bug-description is not mine: I just converted a question someone asked about a week ago to this bug report because I also have the same problem and nobody answered that question yet. As for the package, sure if 18.04 uses gdm3 then it's gdm3. I was just following the Wiki you linked me which says that if it's the login screen then it's LightDM (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage#At_the_login_screen), so that documentation also needs an update because it's apparently out of date and contains false information. If you need me to attach logs, let me know. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to lightdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1769416 Title: Can't login on 18.04 after entering wrong password Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Hello, so I just installed Ubuntu 18.04LTS on my computer ( HP Spectre x360 15 ), running in dual boot mode with windows 10, everything went well during the installation, the only problem I encountered is, if I type a wrong password and then I type the correct password, the desktop never loads...

18.04 use gdm3, not lightdm (which is known to be broken) So you seems dist-upgrading old releases endlessly. That usually ends with lot of useless/disturbing/broken symlinks/... left behind. You might want using gtkorphan & bleachbit (as root) to clean the system. ** Changed in: lightdm (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to lightdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1769416 Title: Can't login on 18.04 after entering wrong password Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Hello, so I just installed Ubuntu 18.04LTS on my computer ( HP Spectre x360 15 ), running in dual boot mode with windows 10, everything went well during the installation, the only problem I encountered is, if I type a wrong password and then I type the correct password, the desktop never loads...

I have no idea what package handles the login. According to the wiki (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage) if one encounters a bug at the login screen, the package is the display manager, which is LightDM in Ubuntu 11.10 or above. ** Package changed: ubuntu => lightdm (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to lightdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1769416 Title: Can't login on 18.04 after entering wrong password Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Hello, so I just installed Ubuntu 18.04LTS on my computer ( HP Spectre x360 15 ), running in dual boot mode with windows 10, everything went well during the installation, the only problem I encountered is, if I type a wrong password and then I type the correct password, the desktop never loads...
