Description Pete Zaitcev 2011-06-22 21:25:21 UTC 
Description of problem:

Everything entered on the console is echoed, including passwords.
Same is during login or in Bash.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

coreutils-8.12-1.fc16.x86_64
kernel-3.0-0.rc3.git0.3.fc16.x86_64
bash-4.2.10-3.fc16.x86_64

How reproducible:

100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot, try to log in
  
Actual results:

Password echoed

Expected results:

Password not echoed

Additional info:

If I run "stty sane", this occurs:

stty: standard input: unable to perform all requested operations

According to strace, it does TCSETS and then TCGETS. Looks like
some bits may be stuck and not settable.

SElinux is in permissive mode.

On second thought, I think it must be Plymouth. After logging out, things
have gone back to normal.
Comment 2 Pete Zaitcev 2011-06-23 04:32:59 UTC 
Actually it's not necesserily the loss of tty functions, but simply
completely random whacky behaviour on terminals. Just now after reboot
the console was simply dead, not accepting any input. Killing the
process  "/bin/plymouth --wait" resolved the issue.
Comment 3 Pete Zaitcev 2011-06-23 04:36:49 UTC 
About bug 710737:
 - That one is in F15, this one in F16, maybe needed for tracking anyway
 - The hang may be the same, but random behaviour is not
Comment 4 Pete Zaitcev 2011-10-19 05:13:33 UTC 
Seems working these days (F17).
