[Bug 1374778] Re: Can't click at every item with greeter-show-manual-login

 

I'm seeing this occur when running unity-greeter --test-mode. Clicking
above then below the selected item seems to stop responding after a
while

Title:
  Can't click at every item with greeter-show-manual-login

Status in “unity-greeter” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity-greeter” source package in Precise:

Status in “unity-greeter” source package in Trusty:

Bug description:
  When using greeter-show-manual-login=true some entries of the loginscreen are not clickable.
  A concrete example: the loginscreen items are:
  - User 1
  - User 2
  - Login (arbitrary Username can be typed) 
  - Guest Session

  When "User 2" is the active item I can click at every other item. When I click at "Guest Session", "Guest Session" will be the active item. Now a click at "Login" is without any effect ("User 1" and "User 2" are still clickable).
  With other computers and different users sometimes more then one item isn't clickable. Sometimes no other item can be selected with the mouse, I have to use the keyboard!

  I can reproduce this problem with 4 different desktop computers and 2
  different notebooks. I noticed this problem with Ubuntu 12.04, 12.10,
  13.04, 13.10 and 14.04. Same problem with and without LDAP-connection.
