password for the virtual machine?

[simon2x]

Searching around, it has been suggested that it is "kivy123" and can't find it in the docs or the download site.

or also that the password is in the readme on the desktop...but I can't login so it is not possible to read the readme :\

@swprojects this should be it. I'm not quite sure where did you get the kivy123 from because I can't find it on RTD nor in the kivy/buildozer/p4a repos.

Also, we need to document it somewhere, but perhaps #502 would be a better solution with a README on the desktop.

ah thanks, that worked ( password = kivy ).

I'm not quite sure where did you get the kivy123...

It was some old answered question on kivy google group but that was all I could find.

Just to clarify, the word this is a link, he is not referring to "kivy123". The current password is "kivy".

to help new search engines like DuckDuck here the entire sentence:

The password for the Kivy virtual machine is kivy (Oct 2017). And you need to look at the top of the screen for the active keyboard, as there is no button to make visible what you are typing. I had several "typos" until I realized that the virtual machine has got its own keyboard setting enforced.

I download VM v2.0 and the passwort "kivy" seems to be wrong.

EDIT: Ah! It'y the "y" and the german keyboard! So my "y" will be a "z" so the password is incorrect...

Added to the download site. Sufficient? Adding it to the VM is quite a job and can perhaps be done for the next version...
