I noticed m4-167-4 had a console login screen up and said it couldn't
start xlogin. I tried to log in as root 3 times in a row, (i really
doubt i could type the public root password wrong 3 times in a row)
and got "login incorrect". I thought this was kind of strange...
I decided to reboot it, and it booted and came back with the message
"Can't open input device. Keyboard not present. Using tty for input
and output."
I tried unplugging and plugging the keyboard back in, and got a beep,
but no response on the console, and it still refused to take any sort
of keyboard input.
When this gets fixed, you should definitely check out the root
password situation, too.
