I get this as well. Indeed it's intended to be able to just press enter,
or typeahead your user name, but it recently broke.
It seems to correlate with bug 439138; in the situations where gdm is
misbehaving, I also get the "X uses 100% CPU" bug. After restarting X,
it seems to work again.
It is conceivable that both bugs have the same source: X desperately
trying to claim the VT, which cryptsetup also holds, and there's a
conflict with both things wanting to grab the keyboard/console.
Can anyone confirm this? Please add the system monitor applet for
watching the CPU usage. When you get the bug, do you get a constant 100%
CPU usage? If you log out and back in, is it fixed, and does gdm react
to just pressing enter for the user name?
** Changed in: gdm (Ubuntu Karmic)
