There is a Sun down in 16-034, machine #20.
The display is black text-mode on a white background.  It shows:

	dm: Unable to start Xlogin
	dm: Unable to start Xlogin
	dm: Unable to start Xlogin

	Unable to start xlogin, doing console login instead.

	m16-034-20 console login: Type 'go' to resume
	ok go
	Type 'go' to resume
	ok boot
	Resetting...

	Can't open input device.
	Keyboard not present.  Using tty for input and output.

The keyboard won't respond, not even the Capslock key -- the cord on 
the left side (the one from keyboard to computer) appeared somewhat loose --
however, pushing it in didn't help.

	Thanks,

	James Cullison
