But the username/password = admin/admin did not work ... it was necessary
to do this:

root at geonode:~# geonode shell
Python 2.7.6 (default, Mar 22 2014, 22:59:56)
[GCC 4.8.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

>>> import geonode
>>> geonode.people.models.Profile.objects.all()[1]
<Profile: admin>
>>> geonode.people.models.Profile.objects.all()
[<Profile: AnonymousUser>, <Profile: admin>]
>>> geonode.people.models.Profile.objects.all()[1]
<Profile: admin>
>>> a=geonode.people.models.Profile.objects.all()[1]
>>> a.set_password("mypassword")
>>> a.save()

Although this point is not directly related to geonode, I did manage to get
the xubuntu-desktop running by editing config.txt (the rpi's text-file
bios) according to the defaults suggested here
<https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/config-txt.md>,
here <https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=5851> and here
<https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-7244624.html>.   It took about 20
minutes to reboot directly into X with blankscreen and no feedback during.
Once booted run "top" in a terminal and watch for load avgs to settle
down.  Eventually, after about 30 minutes, the x-desktop is responsive.

The architecture of the raspberry-pi is ARM rather than i86, and the
geoserver stuff is all java, if i'm not mistaken, so the problem with the
goenode-geoserver part of the ppa:geonode/testing installation (i.e. that
it failed to install) is likely a Java-ARM issue ... IMLIC (if my logic is
correct)
