This is not limited to encrypted installs. I just did a plain manual install and got the same thing.
** Summary changed: - Ubuntu GNOME encrypted install - password won't unlock screen + Ubuntu GNOME Vivid - password won't unlock screen ** Description changed: I'm testing Ubuntu GNOME Vivid 20150224 i386 and performed an encrypted LVM install which appeared to complete successfully but when I let the screen lock my password is not accepted. I repeated the test to be sure it wasn't an error on my part. To reproduce follow these steps: - (1) Install Ubuntu GNOME Vivid using entire disc with LVM & encryption. - Be sure to choose auto-login = yes (I'm not sure that matters but I see - no point in having to enter both the encryption password and the login - password on each boot). + (1) Install Ubuntu GNOME Vivid using any method. Be sure to choose auto- + login = yes (I'm not sure that matters but at this point). (2) Once the installation is complete boot the new system and wait +5 minutes for the screen to lock. (3) Attempt to unlock the screen and you'll find your password is not - accepted (neither is the encryption password - I checked). + accepted. (4) Press Ctrl + Alt + F1 to open a TTY, enter your user name, and then your password which you'll find is accepted. (5) Type sudo-reboot and the system reboots as expected.
