Login problem

[Jonas Stricker]

Hi Austin!

This is no malfunction. Linux (as most other Unices) simply doesn´t show 
you *s while entering your password. That´s a feature, not a bug. So no 
one can see how many characters your password has.
Simply press enter after typing in your pw and you´re in!

Have fun!
:)

Whatever I do, it doesn't show the *'s or anything. The install went fine and the keyboard seems to work fine. My Computer: 1998 iMac 233Mhz G3 4GB Hard Drive. Thanks, any help will be appreciated.
