OK. I just had to fix something in the kids' room at our organization.  

Facilities manager: What's the login and password on the kids [edubuntu 
feisty] machine?
Me: The user is edubuntu and the password is vgtelkiuy
FM: doesn't work. Tried it with both caps and lower case.
Me: I'll be there.

When I get there I try it.  No go. I toggle num lock — mind you no numbers in 
the password or login.  It works.  I couldn't do that remotely, I guess.
