which partition do you have encrypted? only data, or the root partition
of your ubuntu system? have you tried to boot a rescue system and
manually unlock the encrypted device? please paste the exact output of
'cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/<device> <name>'. see /etc/crypttab for
required options and the cryptsetup manpage for documentation.

greetings,
 jonas
