Issue/Bug Description: Fresh install, I don't know why the only way to log in to the gnome desktop is to press the enter key on the keyboard. I assume it's broken in Ubuntu but not displaying a button is retarded.

Example:

Expected behavior: The "Log in" button

Other Notes: Here is how it looks on my KDE instance (not my photo but it's the same)

I don't know why the only way to log in to the gnome desktop is to press the enter key on the keyboard.

If the user is typing a password, then they must have a keyboard available, so the Enter key will be available. It may not be the best UX, though.

I found an upstream GNOME Shell issue about this, which does not provide a rationale but does state this was intentional: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/2460
