I can confirm that this fixes the issue on a MacBook Pro with nvidia
card.

Thanks!

Bug#861101: Can't enter disk encryption password

[David N]

I was seeing this issue on a fresh stretch install, on a amd64 EFI system
with non-free nvidia driver.

I installed plymouth, plymouth-label, plymouth-themes, libplymouth4
0.9.3-3, as well as fontconfig-config, libfontconfig1 2.13.0-5 from buster
to satisfy deps.

This did indeed fix the issue for me.

Note that I also had to upgrade fontconfig from 2.11.0-6.7+b1 to 2.13.0-5
as the plymouth update-initramfs hook was bailing running fc-cache. I
believe this is caused by an issue with the -y flag in the fc-cache present
in stretch. Might be worth adding a version to the
plymouth-themes->fontconfig dep, although this will probably only occur for
mixed stretch/buster users.

Could you please retry again with the version 0.9.3-2 that I've just 
uploaded to unstable?


I've imported an upstream patch that might have an impact for nvidia 
cards (fallback to text renderer if something is wrong with the DRM one)


Kind regards,

Yes. The situation doesn't seem to be different from when I first
reported this bug.

Yes, I am using the nvidia-driver package from Debian non-free.
Removing it (and related packages, apt remove '*nvidia*') didn't help
though.

Are you still able to reproduce this?

Are you using closed source drivers for your graphic card?

Bug#861101: Can't enter disk encryption password

[Sven Bartscher]

Package: plymouth
Version: 0.9.2-4
Severity: normal

I have a system with an encrypted root partition.
When I try to boot it with splash enabled, I get prompted for the
password in graphical mode. When I try to enter the password, it isn't
entered into the password entry. Instead it is written to the upper
left corner of the screen. Pressing enter just moves outputs a newline
instead of accepting the input.
