I am running Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS with GNOME 42.9 (see full inxi -F below) and gdm3.
Recently, when I try to login to the computer using an attached screen (as opposed to just ssh), the login screen does not show the selection of usernames. Instead it displays a box with a "username" in it. But if I type in any real username and press enter, it just refreshes the same screen. It does not move to a screen requesting a password.
This happens with any username, including real ones and ones that I made up.
I uninstalled gdm3 and reinstalled it. But that didn't fix it.
Not sure this is a helpful piece of info, but I can ssh in, start a vnc session, and the remote session will work and lock/unlock properly.
