not_not_a_botNormally I cant google fu my way through any issues i have but this one has me stumped, particularly due to it being difficult to google.    For some reason I can't type any passwords into the terminal.  And yes I'm fully aware that passwords are not echo'd in the terminal... however that fact is also making this hard to troubleshoot.   I can sign in at the lightdm splash no problem, and I can use gksudo (or whatever graphical r08:21
not_not_a_botand the password is accepted08:21
not_not_a_botthough I cannot use sudo,  and even more odd I cant sign in sign into a vps of mine via ssh either08:23
not_not_a_botim running xubuntu 16.04 on a thinkpad X108:23
not_not_a_botfresh instal08:23
not_not_a_botthis has been super hard to find any information via google because every single result is someone who doesnt know that its normal to not see any characters while typing a password into a terminal08:24
not_not_a_botwhich is definitely not my issue lol.08:25
not_not_a_botI should note, when i type a password into the terminal and press enter, Im getting "Permission denied, please try again."08:27
not_not_a_botSorry for the flood, and I appreciate any help, even a wild guess at where i could start troubleshooting would get me further than i am now08:29
knomewhat's the error message on ssh?08:38
not_not_a_botboth08:39
not_not_a_botsorry both are the same08:39
knomehave you read any logs related to this?08:39
not_not_a_bot"Permission denied, please try again."08:39
knomethey might give you more information08:39

knomefor example08:40
knomeor /var/log/auth.log08:40
not_not_a_botugh, Im on a live usb at the moment and I cant access my server because of these issues lol.   Which reminds me, the whole reason im on a live usb is after installing xubuntu (with disk encryption) Im unable to enter my password to unlock the disk, certain keys ('7',  DEL, and several more) suddenly cause my screen to flicker and the the input to go crazy entering in a tonne of characters i didnt type, I subsequently have to reb08:47
not_not_a_bothmm guess i can use my phone to log into ssh08:49
knomeor just look at the auth log locally first08:49
not_not_a_botim on a live usb right now so I havent  run into the issue locally since booting, and I cant enter the passphrase for my disk encryption so Im not able to check the logs in my local install08:53
not_not_a_botcontemplating head2desk smash08:54

not_not_a_botim kinda just thinking out loud, forgive me08:55
