  1. In qemu install Utopic Desktop amd64
  2. During installation select LVM + Encrypted
  3. Finish installation and reboot
  4. When the prompt is displayed to enter disk encryption password type it

  Expected Result
  Can enter password.

  Actual Result
  Cannot type password with "-vga std" but it works with "-vga cirrus"
