Hello,

While installing Ubuntu, I selected for the home directory to be encrypted. This caused the login screen to become very strange. The machine starts, and then the screen is purple, without any prompt being displayed to type in the password. At first I thought that the system froze, but if I enter the password at that point, it then moves me over to the usual Ubuntu login screen. I assume the first password request is associated with the disk decryption, but there is no text prompt saying that. Has anyone experienced such a situation, and if so, is there any remedy so the prompts can be more informative?

As an additional piece of information, this is a System76 laptop. I'm not sure if that makes any difference, but I did use the home directory encryption before, and Ubuntu never showed such behavior - I would be moved to the login screen right away.

Thanks for your help!
