[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1263504] Re: [Toshiba Satellite P55-A5312] At login, have to click on icon to activate keyboard
JamesE, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. Just to clarify your Bug Description, you updated from 13.10 to 14.04 correct? As well, you didn't have this problem in the prior release? ** Summary changed: - At login, have to click on icon to activate keyboard + [Toshiba Satellite P55-A5312] At login, have to click on icon to activate keyboard ** Tags added: latest-bios-1.40 ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1263504 Title: [Toshiba Satellite P55-A5312] At login, have to click on icon to activate keyboard Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I've just upgraded to Ubuntu 13.10. This morning, I couldn't type my password in at the login prompt. It was as if the keyboard was not being recognized.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1263504] Re: [Toshiba Satellite P55-A5312] At login, have to click on icon to activate keyboard
Yes, this bug definitely occurs at 14.04. I'm not sure if it did NOT occur under 13.10, because I upgraded to 14.04 immediately after installing 13.10, and didn't log back into Ubuntu in between. I have since found this issue reported here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1261818 It appears to be an "input focus" issue with the password box whereby any keypresses with the exception of Capslock are not reflected in the password box. My current workaround is: If you right hand click on the password box, then left hand click back into it, input focus is restored and you can now enter your password. Note that I also experience the bug inconsistently like user thotz does: sometimes you can type your password in as normal, other times you have to use the workaround with the mouse. Also note that, once logged in, the keyboard works 100% OK. User thotz suggests it may be a bug with the lightdm for Ubuntu, I assume the utility used for the login screen. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1263504 Title: [Toshiba Satellite P55-A5312] At login, have to click on icon to activate keyboard Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I've just upgraded to Ubuntu 13.10.

JamesE, thank you for your comments. For now, I'm going to this over to lightdm (Ubuntu), please reassign if not the correct.
