"There is no any option left other than formatting your computer when you forget the login password in ubuntu". This is not really true . If you forget your password you are requested to follow the instructions below.
1. Start your computer.
2. After sometime a screen appears where you can choose whether to boot normally or use recovery mode. Press the letter 'E' then your are redirected to a page . Type the 'single' for using single user mode and press 'b' for boot. Then, You should choose the recovery mode to enter into the non-GUI mode.
3. After some time choose 'drop root down to window'.
4. Then you now have the privilege to setup password .You can add user with help of command 'adduser username' and password by using 'passwd password'. Ok cheers Its over.
One last thing i would like to say is that you can switch from GUI to command line by pressing ctrl+alt+F2 and also to switch from command to GUI mode press 'ctrl+alt+F7'.
