apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected bionic third-party-packages
** Description changed: So yesterday I got the prompt to upgrade my 16LTS system to 18. This caused a number of issues, but the most frustrating issue out of many has to be this one. After a period of inactivity, the lock screen kicks in. When I then try to log in, using the correct password, I get a spinner for about 10 seconds, the "Authentication error". After a couple of seconds "Authentication error" goes away but now it seems no keys are registering at all in the password field. I say "it seems" because I see no "*"s as I type, but I do see occasional prompts of "Authentication error" coming back, but I haven't pinpointed the circumstances - certainly not triggered by hitting ENTER, sometimes backspace? Not sure if it has anything to do with the keys. After this all I can do is log in over ssh and reboot; I'm basically locked out on the console. If I wait a while the keyboard does seem to come back but the problem is still there - my password is not accepted and then the keyboard again seems to do nothing for a while. This happens whether I have a USB keyboard connected or whether I am running Synergy and using a virtual keyboard. Mouse continues to work fine. - Release and kernel: Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS (GNU/Linux 4.15.0-34-generic - x86_64) + Release and kernel: Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS (GNU/Linux 4.15.0-34-generic x86_64) + --- + ProblemType: Bug + ApportVersion: 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.3 + Architecture: amd64 + CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME + DisplayManager: gdm3 + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.04 + GsettingsChanges: + b'org.gnome.shell' b'favorite-apps' redacted by apport + b'org.gnome.desktop.interface' b'gtk-im-module' b"'gtk-im-context-simple'" + NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_uvm nvidia_drm nvidia_modeset nvidia + Package: gnome-shell 3.28.3-0ubuntu0.18.04.2 + PackageArchitecture: amd64 + ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.15.0-34.37-generic 4.15.18 + Tags: third-party-packages bionic + Uname: Linux 4.15.0-34-generic x86_64 + UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to bionic on 2018-09-16 (0 days ago) + UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo + _MarkForUpload: True ** Attachment added: "Dependencies.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1792843/+attachment/5189874/+files/Dependencies.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1792843 Title: GDM lock screen will not accept credentials and then loses keyboard?
