[01:47] <Omnifrog> well this is pissing me off
[01:51] <Omnifrog> finally got Mint installed on an old 2009 ASUS Eee PC netbook and it gives me "invalid password" on first login. reinstall and the same thing happens
[01:53] <Omnifrog> reboot
[02:13] <Omnifrog> rediculous solution ...
[02:14] <Omnifrog> reboot twice. ctrl-alt-F1, login, $ startx,
[02:15] <Omnifrog> wtf Mint? clean up your install shit
[03:31] <Omnifrog> huh
[03:33] <Omnifrog> subsequent reboots still require that process
[21:22] <wrst> never been a fan of mint. just hasn't ever been my thing
[21:22] <Unit193> I like mint tea.
[22:21] <Omnifrog> yeah, screw mint. I'ma go with xubuntu for this project
[22:21] <Unit193> I'm a bit biased towards that one, but great choice!
[22:22] <Unit193> Also sounds like the login screen had the wrong keyboard layout or locale.
[22:22] <Omnifrog> it's what I use on my boxen
[22:22] <Omnifrog> I dunno, the login screen worked fine once X was running
