Title:
unable to complete login if onboard set as start minimized
Status in Onboard on-screen keyboard:
Incomplete
Status in Unity:
Expired
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
I am running Ubuntu 11.04 Desktop (with Unity) on a Intel Atom -based
Tablet. If "start onboard minimized" is enabled, the whole shell UI
does not appear after typing user password and hitting Enter in the
login screen. Cursor can be moved and wallpaper is visible (also
SSHing works so the PC does not crash).
steps to recreate:
1) Install Ubuntu 11.04
2) on first boot, in the login screen, open assistive tech and enable on-screen keyboard.
3) login using the on-screen keyboard. Unity comes up as intended.
4) go to application "Assistive Technologies", enable assistive technologies, enable "password dialogs as normal windows", select onboard as the keyboard application and enable "run at start".
4) open onboard, go to settings and enable "start onboard minimized".
5) reboot
6) login screen and on-screen keyboard appears.
7) use keyboard to login, pressing enter after typing password.
8) Unity does not come up, only cursor and wallpaper visible.
steps to revert:
1) reboot
2) in login screen, select "Ubuntu Classic" as the session.
3) login, Gnome 2 comes up as expected.
4) open onboard and disable option "start onboard minimized".
5) logout/reboot
6) login with "Ubuntu" as the session (to use Unity).
So with Gnome 2, onboard's start minimized works as expected, while in
Unity the whole shell fails to appear when logging in. Workaround is
to not use "start onboard minimized" (or not to use Unity ;).
