Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-control-center After changing password and reboot, I could not login with my new password. The old password worked but I Ubuntu was unable to mount my directory, consequently rendering Ubuntu unusable. I saw two error messages and then just the desktop background with no menu. tty did work but I don't know how to use Ubuntu in that mode. Looks like this bug was fixed in my current release 9.10 according to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/307019 but I just had the same issue. Basically it happen as described in bug 307019 I think importance should be set to high as I as a newbie used 2 weeks to find that I could use passwd (I couldn't use my computer).
