I just downloaded a fresh 12.04.1 cd and installed it on a fresh, new
system.

Odly enough the password didn't work to login the first time. But,
afraid I misspelled the password (twice?, odd..) I tried a few different
combinations of keys which are right next to the initial password.
Trying over and over again, at once I logged on. Thinking I misspelled
the password, I rebooted and booted to the Command Line root. Using the
passwd [username] option it gave me the option to change the password.

Tried to change it, same as #4:

passwd: Authentication token manipulation error
passwd: password unchanged

Now a fresh install and auto-login to bypass the problem. Pretty
serious, definately for new users who don't understand what's happening
to them!
