@crowgirl Have you tried taking a look at the partition using a GUI utility of some sort? Kubuntu comes with the KDE Partition Manager, that should be able to auto-recognize it and AFAIK unlock and mount it.
@WinNT4 Yes, I was using KDE Partition Manager since yesterday.
@crowgirl When you select the device where the is partition and look at the "Type" column, what does it say next to the partition? Something like "ext4", "luks" "ext4 [Encrypted", "unknown" etc?
