Re: [arch-general] Automatic login
If you're going to use automatic login, why not cut out the middle man and ditch the display manager entirely?

Re: [arch-general] Automatic login
I have an automatic login option in KDEs "System Settings" -> "Startup and Shutdown"-> "Login Screen (SDDM)" -> "Advanced" -> "[ ] Auto Login". The package extra/sddm-kcm is needed for that. Georg

I have an automatic login option in KDEs "System Settings" -> "Startup and Shutdown"-> "Login Screen (SDDM)" -> "Advanced" -> "[ ] Auto Login". Maybe that is what you are looking for. I do not know anything about the config files since I do not use automatic login. Greetings Tim
[arch-general] Automatic login
Hello, How to enable automatic login in arch (using sddm and KDE) . I tried enabling it in /etc/sddm.conf but it didn't work. Also I saw something like getty but I didn't understand what it does or how to make it work. In all other linux there is an option called "user" in settings but that is absent in Arch. Thanks in advance. Nirjhor
