[Bug 1453292] Re: Can't Type in LUKS Password

 

Okay, so I installed the latest upstream kernal as you requested
(v4.1-rc2-vivid), and now it's recognizing input, but the new problem is
that it isn't decrypting the disk. When I type anything in, it just
shows up at the top of the screen. Pressing the return key just yields a
new line. You can see this here:

So, it seems that this bug persists in upstream versions as well.

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Confirmed

** Tags added: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-
upstream-4.1-rc2
