i don't know LTSP at all, but it sounds very much to me like you have two processes actively trying to control /dev/tty2. One process is a regular root shell, and the other process is a login getty. commands that you type get fed to both processes, which deal with them differently. the root shell, for example, interprets 'student' as a command, and says (reasonably) 'command not found', while the login getty interprets that as a username. the login getty doesn't echo your password, but the root shell does (because it thinks you are typing another command). To fix this, i'd try a couple things: 0) Get rid of the login getty: look in whatever file passes for /etc/inittab (i don't know where that would reside in LTSP) and comment out the line that looks like: 2:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty2 by putting a # sign in front of it. or, instead, you could: 1) move the root shell to an unallocated vt: maybe use SCREEN_08 = shell in your lts.conf instead of SCREEN_02 = shell? Then you'd access the root shell with Ctrl+Alt+F8 instead of Ctrl+Alt+F2.
