I am trying to install Ubuntu 15.04 on an ASUS computer. Everything looks OK during the installation and I pick a password. Then I try to login the screen goes black and then I am back at the login prompt. On this forum I have been told to press Ctrl+Alt+F1 and login and then put some code in to make it all work, but I can't log in. Then I press Ctrl+Alt+F1, it reads my computer name and login: I type my password and I can see it as I type. I am then told to type my password. Then I do that the cursor doesn't move and then I press Enter and I am told that the login is incorrect.

I got it to work and put the code in to update and then reboot, but then I try to login I type the password and hit Enter, and I end up with a blank brown/purple Ubuntu wallpaper, no icons, no toolbars, nothing.

What is wrong?

First it asks for your username, not your password. If you type your username, then it will ask for password. Type your password there. Also you can type Alt+F7 to get a graphical interface.
