Title:
  Password not accepted graphical boot for encrypted root system

Status in “plymouth” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After upgrading to 14.10 from 14.04, I am unable to enter my password
  for decypting the root filesystem.  The password is echoed in
  plaintext on the  graphic boot screen and does not show up in the
  password entry box  on the graphic.   In order to boot the system, I
  have to boot in recovery mode and enter the password during the text
  mode boot.  This problem was also described by another user in
  problem# 1385027.   I did not have a probem in 14.04.   I am using
  nvidia drivers.   I am set to resolution 1920x1200.  I am running
  module uvesafb with changes to /etc/default/grub for the module and
  resolution.  I assume this is a plymouth package bug but am not
  positive.
