I've had this a few times with our cats. Today I evidently caught it in time and Shift-Home Backspace was enough to sort it out, although it took a few seconds. Yesterday I gave up after waiting several minutes - there was no response to anything other than mouse movement - and I had to ssh in from my phone and kill compiz, which was using an entire core. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1463112 Title: Cat sitting on keyboard crashes lightdm To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1463112/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hmm, This issue also affects me. However, I believe the solution is fairly simple. Just select all the text and remove it with Ctrl + A or with Ctrl + Shift and Left Arrow.

I have tried to replicate it on vivid. Problem is I don't have a cat. I have 3 dogs but none of my dogs had enough patience to sit on the keyboard while I was being away.

I've had this happen many times.

Does the bug behavior change when we remove the "mouse" from cat ? ;) Seriously, is this related to the GDM problem, corrected in Gnome ? https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=758032 ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #758032 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=758032 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1463112 Title: Cat sitting on keyboard crashes lightdm To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1463112/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1463112] Re: Cat sitting on keyboard crashes lightdm
Funnily enough, I saw the same issue last night. Also caused by a cat. The system seemed to be completely unresponsive, but I don't think it had locked completely; after a few minutes of holding down backspace (with no indication in the UI that characters are actually being deleted), I managed to eventually clear the password entry box. Hitting enter (ie, to clear the password box by performing an invalid login) didn't seem to do anything either. It seemed like the excessive chars in the password box was slowing the UI down. Changing to tty1 and doing a ps didn't show lightdm to be in any unusual state. I have no idea how long the cat was sitting on the keyboard.
