Public bug reported:
In Ubuntu 18.04.3, gdm3's TimedLogin feature is not working.
Steps to reproduce:
In /etc/gdm3/custom.conf, uncomment these lines
TimedLoginEnable = true
TimedLogin = user1
TimedLoginDelay = 10
and change "user1" to an exiting user name. Reboot. Observe that nothing
happens at all.
Syslog has the following errors:
Dec 12 15:45:23 rechner-lz-06 gnome-shell[1887]: JS ERROR: TypeError:
this._timedLoginItem is
null#012_resetTimedLogin@resource:///org/gnome/shell/gdm/loginDialog.js:1068:13#012wrapper@resource:///org/gnome/gjs/modules/_legacy.js:82:22#012_onTimedLoginRequested/<@resource:///org/gnome/shell/gdm/loginDialog.js:1089:16
In contrast, AutomaticLogin feature works as expected.
