Fedora 20, talking login gone

[Albert Sten-Clanton]

Janina, thanks for the bug link.

Yes, when I did have a talking login  on Fedora 20, it said "black circle"
for each password character I typed instead of the character.  I was glad
indeed.

Hi, Al:

I haven't focussed on this long enough to figure out any pattern. I can tell
you also that I'm not logging in much, as my uptime is now approaching two
months.

However, I did log in the other day having restarted the gui, and I did so
with speech. Furthermore, I was pleased to note that my password was not
echo'd, leading me to think Fedora might have paid atten to the bug I filed
on this:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=982411

Perhaps you might add your comments to this bug?
