Bug Description
The default "cubswin:)" password is impossible to enter if there's a problem with keyboard mappings, please consider moving to an alphanumeric-only one.
Or even better only use alphabetic characters to ease logging in case of a broken keymap...
There's no real value added by the non-alnum chars in a default password known to everybody.

It's basically impossible to enter the password using a Portuguese keyboard, I think most non-US keymaps will have issues entering the password...
