Bug Description
On a 13.04 desktop system with all updates, I always have to enter my password twice at the desktop login (unity-greeter).
In detail:
* Machine boots, and presents me with the greeter.
Expected behaviour: I am able to select between my name (remembered from the last login) and “guest session”.
Actual behaviour: I can only choose between “login” and “guest session”, with the latter being preselected.
* I choose login, enter my user name, and then my password.
Expected behaviour: I get logged in.
Actual behaviour: The greeter switches back to “guest session”, but this time showing my full name above that, instead of “login”.
* I choose my name and enter the password *again*. Now I finally get logged in.
This is really annoying. And I even have to enter the correct password in both tries! If I enter the wrong password at the first prompt, everything starts over from the beginning.
