I can confirm the workaround in comment #2 works for me. Also, I have a hard time reproducing this. It seems to happen every now and then but not when you try to reproduce it.
Anyway, I noticed something else. This also happened on the lock screen, and when I logged in I noticed my login password in clear text. Could it be that the text written on the lock screen (when this bug appears) actually goes through to the current session rather than just silently ignored? If so, this almost looks like a security issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1289737 Title: No keyboard on first login To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-greeter/+bug/1289737/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
