Well, the "auto" module calls "su" which creates a PAM session. We could enable pam_systemd for "su", but that's probably not desirable because a "su" process is generally not a separate session for logind purposes. > For now, I can just use Slim, which has an auto-login option as well, > but as I don't use the graphical / displaymanager part, this probably > costs performance. Probably the easiest solution is to implement the "auto" module using SLiM. It's very lightweight and has few dependencies, so the performance cost should be negligible. -- Eelco Dolstra | LogicBlox, Inc. | http://nixos.org/~eelco/ _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list nix-dev@lists.science.uu.nl http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
