** Summary changed:

- X restarts once if <"> character is entered in gdm password field
+ X restarts once if '2' key is pressed when gdm password field has focus

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: gdm
  
- If I enter the <"> character (inverted comma) in the gdm password field,
- then X restarts immediately.
+ If I press the '2' key or SHIFT+2 while the gdm password field has
+ focus, then X restarts.
  
  * This only happens once.  On subsequent attempts, gdm accepts the entire password
  * I am using the non-free nvidia 190.53 binary driver
  * Running fully-updated lucid alpha 2
  * I have UK keyboard layout
  
  I'm afraid I don't know exactly which package is causing this bug or
  what information to provide.  Please let me know and I'll happily
  oblige.
