You have been subscribed to a public bug:
Ubuntu 10.10 (but I recall that this bug existed in 10.04 and possibly
earlier).
Once you reach the login page, and if you have a single user, the cursor
is located centrally, above the area you need to click in order to open
the password entry box.
If you do not move the mouse at all, but just click, the password entry
box does not appear. The password entry box only appears if you first
move the mouse (even a single pixel is sufficient), and then click on
the box.
Admittedly this is only a minor annoyance, but why should the user be
forced to move the mouse (even if it is only a single pixel), in order
to interact with a button that the cursor is already over?
((Is this in any way related to Bug #14669?))
