thanks for this, but the AutoLogin part seems to fail while the TimedLogin works: #cat /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf [daemon] AutomaticLoginEnable=true AutomaticLogin=/usr/local/sbin/gdm-auto-login %h| TimedLoginEnable=true TimedLogin=/usr/local/sbin/gdm-auto-login %h| TimedLoginDelay=30 . . . here's the logs; it looks like it tries to login when first booted up but fails (though logs to syslog) then when the TimedLogin kicks in 30 seconds later it works: # tail /var/log/messages Nov 21 13:39:41 LTSPMASTER gdm-auto-login: Automatically logging in <ltsp1> on ltsp1 Nov 21 13:39:41 LTSPMASTER gdm-auto-login: Automatically logging in <ltsp1> on ltsp1 Nov 21 13:40:14 LTSPMASTER gdm-autologin(pam_unix)[921]: session opened for user ltsp150_1 by (uid=0) thanks for any advice... ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
