Just upgraded to 15.04 and i'm crashing at the login screen
I just attempted an upgrade from 14.10 to 15.04, the upgrade completed and i get as far as the login screen but when i input my password the screen blacks out flashes a bunch of text that i haven't been able to read yet and takes me back to the login screen. Can someone help me fix this issue or instruct me as to how i can find more information about it. A cursory google search has yielded nothing so far. Many thanks in advanced and i'm sorry i have no more information than this i am not well versed in the more advanced applications of ubuntu.

You can use lightdm-gtk-greeter or gdm until update or try Reset your User Profile in Ubuntu.

I think I have similar problem to yours: Ubuntu 15.04. Problem booting with systemd
If that's the case in bootloader's select screen select line Advanced Options for Ubuntu and then load option with upstart.
If that works you can set upstart as your default service manager: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SystemdForUpstartUsers#Permanent_switch_back_to_upstart
