So as not to lose this possibly useful snippet: If my password contains
a numeral the crash happens as soon as that numeral is typed; otherwise
the crash happens when I press Enter. E.g "my2pennies4" causes the crash
when I press "2" whereas "letmeinnow" doesn't cause a crash until I
press Enter.

I'm wondering if this might be caused by the automatically detected
input devices?

$ egrep '(Adding input device|PreInit)' /var/log/Xorg.0.log
