Pi login problem

Sat Feb 02, 2013 4:15 pm

Hi David here, a sixty years old, a newcomer to rasberry pi linux,and average pc user of @ 13 years.
I've managed to boot up the OS a couple of times & am using a decent powered hub and peripherals but
since have not been able to complete login. I'm able to type pi enter but unable to imput the password rasberry? I get an error message-wrong password. I tried both a pc and a mac keyboard and as they obviously work I'm perplexed. I also tried 2 different rasbian OS cards? I appreciate your busy but if you have some little time to spare I would appreciate it!

Login = pi

Pass = raspberry


It is called Raspbian, you been losing your Pee !
I will always assume you are running Raspbian for desktop and Raspbmc for XMBC !

Just trying to be humorous. I do realize that English is not the primary language for a lot of people.
