Public bug reported: Lubuntu 19.04 (x86_64) QA-Test install
dell [optiplex] 780 (c2q-q9400, 8gb, amd/ati cedar radeon hd 5000/6000/7350/8350) On first boot, i expected to see (on either display) a single login box for username/password. Instead I got a box on each display (as if mirrored) but noted the password was only appearing as dots on one screen. With experimentation, I can enter different passwords on each display - if I press <enter> whilst inside the valid-password box I get logged in, if I press <enter> on an invalid password screen (with valid password on the other screen) I get login failed correctly. As such I don't see how this could be mis-used, but it is a little confusing/distracting, but minor. After login, if I logout I get the same two user/boxes allowing different entry in each. At this time I have not rebooted; it's still initial boot (post-install) My displays are differently aligned to the default; but this occurred on reboot before any adjustments were made to displays (to match my having one tilted-left so portrait mode etc) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 19.04 Package: sddm 0.18.0-1ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.0.0-7.8-generic 5.0.0 Uname: Linux 5.0.0-7-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.10-0ubuntu23 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: LXQt Date: Fri Mar 29 14:26:22 2019 InstallationDate: Installed on 2019-03-29 (0 days ago) InstallationMedia: Lubuntu 19.04 "Disco Dingo" - Alpha amd64 (20190326.1) SourcePackage: sddm UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ------ The following (snippet) is from my QA-test comments --- (between steps 2 & 3 I had to use lxqt.prefs-monitor.settings to adjust my display to match portrait & my display organization for the little sanity i have left..) // maybe the display change caused this???
