Help! I forgot my password on Ubuntu 9.04, I was messing with account properties and I click generate password. Than I clicked Ok to see if it would change hopeing it obiosly wouldn't, it asked for password, I click cancel without entering my password. I thought obviosly it didnt change. I created a new account (not an admin) and denied acces to external devices. Why? IDK. I logged of and went on the new account. There was something I had to edit so I went back to my account. But when I tried to log in it said "user name or password is incorrent. Please try again" Tried like 50 times, restarted but still, no use. What do i do? HELP!
