Has anyone else experienced this:
On two occasions, (once a new build and once an upgrade from RH7.2), I have been unable to log into the machine either as ROOT or as a USER?

I use the Dvorak keyboard (English language), which I believe may have contributed to the problem. I reinstalled SuSE and chose simple, all lowercase alphabet-only passwords during installation, then later changed them to something more complex after I sucessfully logged in, using the passwd command on the command line.
