[PLUG] Login failed

I moved the mouse.  And it disapeared.  The cursor I mean not the part
you hold in your hand.  None of regular keystrokes worked either except
ctrl-alt-backspace.  My mouse has been a little batty lately, double
clicking when I single click.  So maybe it was responsible.  I swapped
the mouse out.   
It's the login that is most baffling.
