Long-time TrueCrypt user making the switch to VeraCrypt. I'm using VC v1.24-U4 on Linux Mint v19.2. I can mount my VC volume with a startup script as I did with TrueCrypt, but the password prompt behaviour is odd in that DEL and BACKSPACE keys don't work, nor do the arrow keys, or TAB or ENTER. So if I goof typing my volume or super-user passwords, I have to select the dots (can't BACKSPACE or arrows and DEL) and retype. I also can't just type the password and press ENTER as I did with TC, I have to enter the password and then click the OK button with the mouse.
So is this a known limitation or is something wonky with my system?
Thanks,
