Looks like this only happens with the new "spinner" theme. With the "charge" theme, the label only shows after a failed try (?) I've seen the long label version together with the charge theme too when early/first attempt fails (or times out!). No idea where this comes from but IMO disk name and luks label usually aren't really useful information when prompting for the password. It should (and usually does) show the mount point.. Sebastian is right, the label is also shown with Charge, but only after a failed attempt (or a given timeout?) I like the idea to show the mount point name. Showing this only after a failed attempt is file, too. But it should be the same for all themes. I'm seeing the full label with charge, before any failed attempts. This is with F16. This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping |
Created attachment 500654 [details] Screenshot When prompted for a passphrase during boot, plymouth now shows this: --- Please enter passphrase for disk $DISK_NAME ($LUKS_LABEL) --- (-> screenshot) The $DISK_NAME is not very useful I think, especially if there is only one HDD. And at least for me, the $LUKS_LABEL does not even fit on screen in hole. IMHO the extra information compared to F14 just looks bad and should be removed.
