Hey, @Dekker500's workaround did not yield a text input of the passphrase as I expected, but it did cause the graphical text entry to come up! What in the world?
adding GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text to /etc/default/grub and then "sudo update-grub" causes the (plymouth?) graphical screen to come up at the next reboot Now instead of seeing the screen flash once to black and then the passphrase entry (as in 14.04), it does this twice, then the passphrase can be entered in graphical entry, but hey, it is working for me. !!! ??? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1359689 Title: cryptsetup password prompt not shown To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1359689/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
