ProbeLabs65 findings · 95 requirementsA proof layer — requirements, tests and verified fixes — for two of Omarchy's subsystems: the application menu (launcher scripts, QML model, JSONC config, search and selection) and the lock screen (lock scripts, QML, PAM authentication).

Original report
System details
Intel Core Ultra 7, Omarchy 4.0, french AZERTY keyboard
What's wrong?
During the initial Omarchy installation, I was using a French keyboard layout and chose a password containing accented/special characters.
The installation completed successfully, but once I reached the login screen, my password was not accepted. I had to reformat/reinstall Omarchy and choose a simpler password without those characters.
This makes me wonder whether the keyboard layout selected during the installation is correctly preserved between the account/password creation step and the first login after installation.
It would be worth checking whether the keyboard layout or input configuration can change between these two stages. In particular, passwords containing characters that differ between keyboard layouts (e.g. French AZERTY vs US QWERTY) could make this issue particularly difficult to diagnose, since the password appears to have been accepted during installation but then fails at login.
It would be great if the installer could ensure that the exact same keyboard layout is active during the first login, or warn the user about potential issues with special characters in passwords.
Thanks !
