I've just installed 11.10, and am using Gnome shell.
I'm having a weird issue. When I put my password using my account (ramiz) on the login screen of GUI, a blink of screen and it take me back to the login screen. I tried with Guest user and it is logging me in. I also tried Ctrl+ATL+F1 to switch to command mode and try to login there with sudo -s.
Thanks in advance for any help. Ubuntu 12.04
Up until recently my mother has been using the Guest Session when she logs on; now, the Guest Session will not login.
I am new to Linux. I have read a lot of articles about Login Shell vs Non-Login Shell but I am still confused. In the following scenarios, may I know whether the user is using a Login Shell or a Non-Login Shell?
Case 1 - One PC is using Linux without GUI. The user can login to his account from the command line.
After an inturrupted upgrade from 11.04 I was finally able to get back to a login screen. However, I'm only able to login as a guest.
When I try to login with my regular username, a black box opens up in the top left hand corner with:
(username)@(username)-Satellite-A135:~$
I've tried typing in my username, password...nothing.
Hi guys,
I recently loaded Ubuntu Server 32bit as i really want to learn about servers and how to make a pc log into a server etc.
After about 8 attempts i got it installed and i boot up and it asks for a login?
normal with Linux you use root in stead of admin.
But no where when installing did it ask me for a "ROOT"password. it asked me for my password.
Dear all,
I'm a programmer in Linux environment. I just have a requirement that requires me to build a new login function for Ubuntu 12.10 (quantal)
The requirement is:
- Supporting the Ubuntu users outside company (more than 1000 PCs worldwide) could be authenticated with our system through their username/password.
Hello, I had my laptop set up to allow logging in with an AD account using winbind and samba. I had cached password login working too. After I upgraded from 13 to 14, now I cannot login to the gdm (xfce) using my AD account, but I CAN login using it on a text console, OR I can login with a local account and su to the AD account.
Hello, I have a liveUSB with ubuntu 11.10 on it. I have there my own account "Han" with a password, and there's also a basic account called "ubuntu". I have set a password there too, by some passwd command in terminal. The problem is, when I boot up the computer, It automatically logs in ubuntu account, without asking for password.
