Hide Forgot
Description of problem: When booting the system, the screen goes blank and waits there. Pressing escape shows the text mode prompt for the encrypted drive passphrase. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): plymouth-0.8.9-10.2013.08.14.fc22.x86_64 kernel-4.2.8-200.fc22.x86_64 How reproducible: Happens every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Reboot or power on the system. 2. Wait. 3. On blank screen, press escape to reveal the encrypted disk passphrase prompt. Actual results: The system shows a blank screen during early boot up. The user must press escape in order to reveal the prompt for the encrypted disk passphrase (i.e. switch to text mode). Expected results: A graphical prompt should be shown for the encrypted drive passphrase. Additional info: This is on a Dell Latitude E6520 laptop. The problem does not occur on a similarly configured Dell Latitude E5420 laptop (i.e. it shows the graphical prompt for the encrypted drive passphrase). This has been happening for a long time.
We get here a black screen with a cursor only in the left upper corner *after* entered the right password into graphical password prompt, for some time till cinnamon shows up. No idea if that's the same bug.
