	Did you create another user account on your machine when you first
installed it?

	If not, do you remember setting the root password when you went through the
installation?

	If neither of these ring a bell, just for the hell of it, try to login with
the username root, without a password... if that works, you need to take
some other steps in the configuration of your machine.
