Same as David (#76), I'm running Arch Linux, with the latest kernel (4.7.0-rc6-mainline)
Apparently Plymouth and crypt can't cooperate: I have to switch to text login (nosplash option) to decrypt my LUKS Harddisk - obviously setting nosplash stops Plymouth from running and therefore I haven't any boot screen. When using the graphical login Plymouth displays the "Password request" interface, but when something is entered the text is shown in cleartext on the top left corner. Pressing ENTER after inserting a correct password won't work. Changing theme doesn't affect the behavior, it only affects (obviously) the graphics. There isn't any dot in the password box while typing, entering a bad password behaves as same as entering a valid password: the text is displayed in cleartext and it's like writing in a shell, with no output -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1386005 Title: Password not accepted graphical boot for encrypted root system To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1386005/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
