Bug Description

This nice new layout for the login screen into Jaunty gnome desktop sure in pretty/cute but it would be even better if you could type your user name and password into the prompts so that you could go ahead and login and see the gnome desktop.

This is on the ALTERNATE CD version 32 bit of Jaunty daily build as of ISO file dated 03-14-2009.

Thanks.

Do not get any error. Simply can not type user name into prompt box (except for maybe 1 character), then functioning just stop. Can not get to terminal or anything. Machine has to be hard rebooted.

I really find it hard to believe that an O/S (even for testing) could be released with a condition like this !!!
