Proposing as both FE and blocker for consideration. While the workaround is simple, this sounds like it does *look* pretty bad, and there are a lot of laptops with fingerprint readers out there these days. Confirming, that authselect-1.2.2-6.fc34.x86_64 seems to fix the problem. See comments 18 to 20 of Bug 1933520 As noted in the above descr/comments, and also as noted that it may not related be this bug and so maybe a different bug. I have seen some spurious times when GDM login spins on password typing. The gdm-spin is not the same as a misstyped password event, which brings back the password prompt in 2 seconds. One way to get it out form the spin in the switch to and back from linux console. Confirming that Benjamin Berg's revised bug description to describe different effect ma be correct. Perhaps new bug title should be "gdm login spuriously gets stuck and spins after password entry" * It does happen on first password attempt. It does not need to be a mistyped password * I think it may also happens on the login on first lock-screen * Pressing escape will also take back from spin to reentry password prompt * The very first login, has a back-arrow to the left of the prompt, which can also escape to re-entry password prompt * I wonder if it happens on machines without fingerprint-reader * sometimes a notification message "gnome-shell quit unexpectedly" exists * sometimes gnome-shell logout takes too long to log out when okaying to bypass the timeout This has been accepted as an FE at least in https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review/issue/296 (blocker voting is still open). Can we please get a build/update with the fix? Thanks! FEDORA-2021-ec64853158 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 34. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2021-ec64853158 With gdm-40~beta-2.fc34 first attempt at login after boot works for me. Just for completeness sake, the gnome-shell side of the issue is tracked at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/3853. This last remaining issue is really low impact though. It only happens after presenting the wrong finger and it is expected to be fixed in the final release. From today's Go/No-Go meeting: RejectedBlocker(Beta) - There is insufficient consensus that this is a blocker (and those who want to say it is also want to waive it), so we will leave it for FinalBlocker consideration FEDORA-2021-ec64853158 has been pushed to the Fedora 34 testing repository. Soon you'll be able to install the update with the following command: `sudo dnf upgrade --enablerepo=updates-testing --advisory=FEDORA-2021-ec64853158` You can provide feedback for this update here: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2021-ec64853158 See also https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Updates_Testing for more information on how to test updates. Marking verified based on comment #7. Can folks please +1 the update if it works for them? Thanks! Discussed during the 2021-03-15 blocker review meeting: [0] The decision to delay the classification of this as a blocker bug was made as this isn't a completely clear call for Final blocker, so since it's confirmed fixed in Beta anyway we're just going to duck it by waiting for that fix to be pushed stable. [0] https://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2021-03-15/f34-blocker-review.2021-03-15-16.00.txt FEDORA-2021-ec64853158 has been pushed to the Fedora 34 stable repository. If problem still persists, please make note of it in this bug report. |
