    Couldn't login after 1903 upgrade


    Login screen background was displayed. No mouse pointer, keyboard ignored except for Ctrl-Alt-Del in which case the password entry field appears, but I couldn't type into that password field, so cannot login

    Arrghhh! I thought we'd got past this sort of issue.

    I powered off using the power button and when I restarted, the login worked this time.

    Hmmmm

    Hello David,

    As a test, check to make sure you have Fast Startup turned off to see if it may be the cause of this.

    You're most welcome. Did turning off Fast Startup sort this for you?

    Problem has never recurred (so far).
