If your username and password are both correct, then something else is blocking the login. The easiest way to confirm your username is by booting into recovery mode, entering a chroot, and running ls in the /home directory, as outlined in the Password Reset article. Wrong password: you're notified of this at the graphical login screen.It is often your first name all lowercase, first and last name all lowercase, or first initial and last name all lowercase. Wrong username: your username may not be the same as your display name.If you're not able to log in, the reason could be: You will not see your password as you are typing it just type it and press "Enter." You'll then be prompted for your password. At the login prompt, enter your username and press Enter.

Configuration files in your home directory are not compatible with new versions of software.There are several causes for login loops: If you try logging in and you just see a black screen, or Ubuntu brings you back to the login screen, you're experiencing a login loop. Technically speaking a “window” has a different meaning, it’s an object on the screen that can be re-sized full screen, less, and minmized.Sometimes after an upgrade, your system might not bring you to the desktop after logging in. When you say “increase height of window” you’re really talking about the physical display settings of your monitor. I assume you’re describing what I saw long ago… NOTE: I haven’t got around to submitting a bug report yet… If so the VMM icon might be in the system tray rather than on the taskbar Increase the height of the window and you can now reach the menu at the top of the VM’s window and fully drop it out of full-screen mode.Īs for the VMM manager disappearing when minimised, check if you have the “Enable system tray” option set.Right click on the task-bar icon for the VM.

The inability to drop out of full-screen mode is a bug that has been introduced between versions 13.1 and 13.2.įortunately I have a dual-screen so my task bar is always available and I can follow this procedure to get it out. So, I recommend that once you’re in full screen mode, experiment a little bit with your monitor settings, there usually is something that makes the entire display slide left-right and up-down. It’s been a very, very long time since I personally experienced what you described… I think it was about 6 yrs ago… IIRC I discovered then that when I went to full screen with a Guest for whatever reason my physical monitor shifted the display slightly and some edges or sometimes the overall geometry of the display was off a few pixels… and as you’re discovering if the display doesn’t display those edge pixels, your mouse won’t activate things like that dropdown tab. My best solution thus far has been to move the pointer into the upper left corner to display the open apps and just X out of the console, and reopen if needed which make it a window again. I ran my mouse all across the top of the screen and it will not make the menu reappear.

However with a little testing I find when it I first the console into full screen that drop down pops up briefly, then disappears.
