Hullo All,
I’m looking for assistance in a workaround for a problem that I have running on i386 - I’ve encrypted my disk ( which works fine ) but upon boot I get a graphical decrypt password prompt - this doesn’t work ( nothing seems to get entered into the box, and pressing return results in nothing happening ). If I then Ctrl-Alt-Delete, it bounces through the GRUB boot loader selection screen ( vs. auto boot ? ) - and then I get a textual decrypt prompt - which does work. This means that I have to effectively boot twice each time I start the laptop …
I’m considering it might be used as a security feature to deter the uninitiated 
but more I’m hoping that someone can either (a) give me a fix so that the graphical login works or (b) tell me how I can force the textual login at boot time so I don’t have to go through the Windows three finger salute to log in …
Many thanks in advance community !
