Dear Maintainer,

I've recently updated my media player system to Debian 13. I use the kdeconnect app on Android to control the mini pc. When I type in my password to login to Debian it fails.
Showing the password characters is appears that kdeconnect / Debian login does not pick up the upper case letters I type on my phone and uses lower case instead. This makes it impossible to unlock the PC.
This used to work fine on Debian Bookworm. Not sure if this is a kde connect issue or Debian login screen issue?

The phone runs LineageOS 22.2
Android 15
KDE Connect 1.33.4 app

Dear koen,

It is  known upstream and I’ve linked the upstream bug report but there doesn’t seem to be a fix yet.


Happy hacking,
