>From the terminal you should be able to shutdown or reboot by running 'sudo poweroff' or 'sudo reboot' respectively. I'm not sure why it's not letting you log in. Try changing your password at the command prompt to something really simple without any crazy symbols in. Also if you have a strange keyboard like dvorak then try creating a password you can type in qwerty in case it's reset the gnome keyboard settings. -- Regards, Harry Mills http://haeg.in 07708228571
