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.
Hope this helps,
