Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gdm
Enable the timed login feature for user 'Guest'. Then reboot.
When the GDM presents the user list and displays the automatic login countdown,
use the arrow keys to select another user and press enter. GDM does not
display the password input box, and attempting to login will fail. After that,
the greeter is reloaded and you are able to login normally.
You can avoid this issue by pressing Escape before selecting another
user from the list.
This was tested on Ubuntu 10.04 Netbook Remix.
