You will need to give us a little more to go on than "does not work" -- otherwise we can't really troubleshoot this.

From your description one possible problem that springs to mind might be that the "Forward" button was not enabled when you typed your password and username combination in?

This is a known issue, and it is because the username must be a single word in lowercase.

This will be fixed in future releases of ubuntu, but current releases still use the same installer version.

On the other hand, if the problem is that you have already successfully installed Ubuntu but you are having trouble logging in, or that you have installed it and logged in but you're having trouble performing administrative tasks like updating your system or installing additional software, then please let us know.

How do you know that it is correct? Does it work in other situations? Do you use it to log in? Is the password unusual in any way--for example, blank (i.e. zero characters long)? Are you saying that you've reinstalled Ubuntu ten times, or that you have installed it once and attempted to enter your password ten times?

Unless this question is actually solved, please reopen it, since right now it's hard to tell that you're still asking for help. You can reopen the question at https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+question/151947. If you are confused about how to do that, please ask.

Are you still experiencing this problem? Or is this really solved?
