Comment 34 for bug 1311403

I am having this same issue with 16.04 - Whenever I am prompted with the locking screen, I am not able to fill in my password - the cursor does not blink, and no matter where I click on the screen (gear icon, etc...) I am not able to enter password.

In addition - when the system keyboard is NOT english I am unable to enter tty1-6 via ctrl+alt+f<num> to restart lightdm - works find with english keyboard. I've not looked extensively into what the F<num> keys are under German, but I'd imagine that there wouldn't be much of a difference.
