    Hello and welcome to the forums!

    In the Linux console, password characters are not echoed to the screen. You'll need to enter the password just as if it were showing on screen, then press ENTER.

    Not sure what might be going on then. Maybe your caps lock is ON, you are using the wrong keyboard layout, or you are simply entering the wrong password. If by chance you are trying to login as root user, keep in mind that root logins are disabled on many distributions.
