It is impossible to log in to hipster-9. I made the tests on
hipster-8. So what is exactly that you are suggesting? And no: 
running as root did not set anything (at least that's my understanding).
In fact, when I run the test command as root, the login screen appeared
so the test worked. When I run the test command as an ordinary user, it
failed.
