Ultimate Edition 4.2 can't log in -username password bug

Postby bugreporter » Sat Jul 12, 2014 8:59 pm

There have been several people asking for the default username and password for the Ultimate Edition 4.2 live CD, since they can't get past that prompt. The username REALLY IS "ultimate" (all lower case) and the password REALLY IS "" (null, as in "enter"). I know, you tried and that didn't work. If you look closely you will notice the rejection message is different. It reads "Failed to start session" for the correct user/pass instead of "Invalid password, please try again". The problem is found at the end of /var/log/authlog. -it is the missing library /lib/security/pam_kwallet.so
It's not just you.

I had the same problem, I rebooted, chose MATE as th desktop and did the ultimate/nter trick and it worked fine. The key is to choose the MATE desktop

I know when I first tried it, I was taken aback when I sen the login prompt. And when I first tried it, I just typed in "ultimate" then just pressed enter. I to got the same error message "Invalid password, please try again". And I did check to see what desktop it was, but when I entered the information, it didn`t work. So, the way to get past the login promt is to physicaly click on the Mate desktop (even though it might look like it is already selected) Then enter "ultimate" as user name, then just hit enter when you get to the password (don`t type anything in, just hit enter).
This solution has worked for me and I`m sure it should for anyone else too.
