[Splashy-devel] Bug#525150: No input possible at startup with encrypted filesystems

Package: splashy
Severity: grave



-- System Information:

  APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable')
Architecture: x86_64

Kernel: Linux 2.6.29-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores)

Dear maintainers,

on my system the files (all on their own partitions) /usr, /var and /home
are encrypted.

At boot, when splashy is started, it is not possible, to enter the password
into the required field. 

I read, this issue was discussed before, but it still seemed not to be
solved (please feel free to correct me).

With this bug, the package is sadly unusable for me at the moment.

Thanks for any help.

Best regards

Hans
