My system is not even letting me enter my password. As soon as i select the username to enter my password i am getting an error "That didnt work Please try again." I tried to login to tty by pressing alt+ctrl+f3 even there it is not working. it says invalid login as soon as i enter my username and press enter.

@Nmath But i dont even if I press enter. I press space bar to get the password screen. but as soon as i get the password prompt i see the error. i even tried creating a new user by going into root login via grub, but even there i am facing the same problem – user3711432 Jun 01 '19 at 19:11

I tried upgrading the kernel as suggested in the solution. it was Linux 4.18.0.20 i upgraded it to 4.18.0.21. still no difference.. – user3711432 Jun 05 '19 at 13:10

This bug was reportedly fixed with kernel 4.18.0-15 Have you tried a previous kernel? 4.18.0-15-generic from the repositories works fine here. Perhaps there has been a regression. – Elder Geek Jun 07 '19 at 03:05
