It was not normal. Maybe I am not using correct term.  I cannot start 
Synaptic or any program that asks for administrative password.

I tried every desktop environment I have, Ubuntu, Ubuntu on Wayland, 
XFCE, Xubuntu.  All the same.

Now I have rebooted, and the login screen will again not accept my 
password. I can ssh in using same username and password I enter on that 
screen.
