I boot into runlevel3 with rhgb off. I've seen the password echo, I've seen the
username not echoed. I've seen no carriage returns between the greeter
message, username request, and password request. It's not consistent.
I have noticed that even when the login request on tty1 is messed up, if I
switch to tty2, it seems to work properly.
