Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.

RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Michael Boisvert 2017-04-28 19:53:26 UTC

Description of problem: When logging into a new session, if you type the wrong password then press escape, you will return to the user list with the password prompt still visible and blocking the user list. 

gdm-3.22.3-8.el7 

How reproducible: About 80% of the time. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot into the log in screen.
2. Click on a user and enter the incorrect password.
3. Press ESC.

Actual results: Password prompt still visible and blocking user list. 

Expected results: You can escape back to the user list without seeing the password prompt.

Comment 6 Michael Boisvert 2017-06-14 19:02:29 UTC

The password prompt no longer blocks the screen. Verified.
