*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1875062 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1875062 This bug is back in 24.04 (noble). Same issue - Set the keyboard to UK at install, but the keyboard used is US layout so special characters e.g. # & £ are transposed, and therefore doesn't work at first login. (At least I could see the error now) Tried on a Desktop install from the Beta, and also on a laptop install using the full release. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1948714 Title: After reboot, the password set at install time doesn't work.

[Bug 1948714] Re: After reboot, the password set at install time doesn't work.
So I then manually changed the password to read Thanks#Brian by using the US mapping of Shift+3 to get the # symbol as seen in the screenshot. I let the installer run and logged in successfully using Thanks#Brian directly as I normally would on my UK keyboard. So, yes, it looks like Unity isn't picking up the keyboard map selection in the initial password entry screen (where you have the eyeball icon now). Does this then relate to bug #1948716 where I noticed that Unity doesn't 'guess' my keyboard map correctly at the beginning and I have to manually select UK mapping? ** Attachment added: "Screenshot from 2022-01-29 09-19-59.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1948714/+attachment/5558145/+files/Screenshot%20from%202022-01-29%2009-19-59.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1948714 Title: After reboot, the password set at install time doesn't work.

I've downloaded and installed using 20220129 which does have the eyeball icon next to the password field. As seen in the attached screenshot, the keyboard mapping at the password stage doesn't go to UK as previously selected - I had tried to type Thanks#Brian but the keyboard had given me Thanks/Brian. ** Attachment added: "Screenshot from 2022-01-29 09-19-07.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1948714/+attachment/5558144/+files/Screenshot%20from%202022-01-29%2009-19-07.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1948714 Title: After reboot, the password set at install time doesn't work.

I download a daily image from today, 20220128, and there is an eyeball at the end of the "Choose a password:" text box. Thanks again for your testing but could you try again with a daily build that allows you to see your password as you enter it?

[Bug 1948714] Re: After reboot, the password set at install time doesn't work.
Hi Brian, Using the latest daily build (20220126), I cannot see the option to display the password? - see attached screenshot. I can see your line of thinking as the # symbol is different on US & UK keyboard mappings (much to the annoyance when I lived in the US for 6 years and had to retrain my muscle memory twice!). I ran an install using the UK keyboard layout with the # symbol from its own key within the password - The issue is still extant. I tried using the US mapping of Shift+3 to make the # symbol when logging in, but it still failed. I then ran an install using the US keyboard layout with the # symbol made by pressing Shift+3 within the password - Using the US mapping of Shift+3, I can log in normally.

[Bug 1948714] Re: After reboot, the password set at install time doesn't work.
We have recently updated ubiquity for 22.04 which adds an option to unhide passwords that are being typed. We are doing this because we suspect there is a bug with keyboard layout switching and that might be the root cause of the issue which you have found. Can you try doing a new installation of Ubuntu and confirm that the keys you are pressing are the keys being registered in the password?

[Bug 1948714] Re: After reboot, the password set at install time doesn't work.
I've narrowed it down to a specific special character at any location in
the string, and after changing all of my passwords that included it, I
can reveal it to be the '#' character. So either pass#word or password#
fails.
I am now checking other special characters ('*' works).
Is there a faster way of me doing this than spinning up new VMs and
going through the installation each time?

[Bug 1948714] Re: After reboot, the password set at install time doesn't work.
OK, so it appears that the bug is if you have a special character in the original password. I don't really want to say which special character and where in the password it appears in this public area, but if you contact me, I'll let you know. Also, please excuse my ignorance on all of this.

Hi Leo, Interesting. I ran the Ubuntu 21.20 iso through the same VM (used fresh VDI) and I get the same fault. On my actual Ubuntu machine 21.10 was installed with no problems. So maybe it's a VirtualBox issue? I don't understand (I mean I really am lacking the knowledge) why the keyboard layout bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1948716 would affect this?
