@Charlie Kravetz: read the full bug log and try it for yourself. it is still broken in xubuntu 11.04 which makes ubuntu an unusable option for kiosk installations where auto-relogin must happen. in my books that's a rather serious problem. see subject change by Kees Cook (kees) on 2009-12-03 which diverges from the chatter in the original report and first bunch of messages in the report. i.e. gdm ignores timed/auto login on all but first greeter run ... it does!

hamish: Perhaps you should read what I really wrote above. This bug is in GDM, which may affect each distribution. Let's remember, Xubuntu is not Ubuntu, and mixing these does make it much more confusing to determine what is really being used. As you state, it is still broken in xubuntu 11.04 which makes ubuntu an unusable option is not a valid argument. Xubuntu 11.04 is not Ubuntu, it derived from Ubuntu. Let's attempt to keep these separate. A bug in GDM can affect all distributions that use it.

@strikernl : Do you have this issue on the GDM login screen? It is still valid for all the packages listed except Ubuntu.

This is a bug in the upgrade itself, not in the Xubuntu meta-package. I am marking the Xubuntu part of this invalid.

[Bug 463314] Re: gdm ignores timed/auto login on all but first greeter run
@Charlie Kravetz: yes, it's on the GDM login screen. I'm fairly sure this is not upgrade related -- just about two weeks ago I did a clean install of Ubuntu 10.04 on my HTPC. This bug was definitely still present then. The use case is, when the XBMC session (which replaces the GNOME session in my case, xbmc-standalone) crashes for whatever reason (which happens occassionally), GDM must log back in, restarting XBMC. This is desirable because my HTPC (and I think HTPCs in general) is/are not likely to have any input devices other than a remote connected, making logging in manually impossible. It just sits there at the login screen waiting for user input. This worked on Ubuntu 9.04, which is what I'm currently using, but it didn't work in 9.10 and it doesn't work in 10.04. This is effectively blocking me from upgrading my HTPC. The _first_ login works, subsequent logins _don't_. If I'm not mistaken, restarting gdm also works, but there is no way of doing that with just the remote, nor is such a thing very desirable in my opinion. -- gdm ignores timed/auto login on all but first greeter run https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/463314 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Running Mythbuntu 9.10 (amd64): - Autologin behaves randomly but when I have to manually login it never takes more than three attempts. - Using Intel graphics driver (GMA X4500), so no Nvidia exclusivity here. - xorg.conf presence (or not) makes no difference at all. - Resolution seldom changes to the wrong value.

[Bug 463314] Re: gdm ignores timed/auto login on all but first greeter run
I don't use Mythbuntu, but I am encountering the same issue on a fresh install of Xubuntu. Based on my experience and those reported in the ubuntuforum.org thread previously by neutron68, it seems there are a few critical thing we have in common: *Nvidia video cards *user-selected screen resolution due to faulty auto-detected settings. *the presence of an xorg.conf file in liu of auto configuration by X *XFCE as the desktop environment (both Mythbuntu and Xubuntu uses XFCE) things that don't seem to matter: *monitor type/model (I have a ViewSonic CRT) *upgrade vs. install (I didn't upgrade as some here did) *OSS vs. proprietary X driver (I haven't used Nvidia's binary drivers) my xorg.conf file was auto generated with Xorg -configure. With some tweaks, I was able to eliminate one of the possible culprits (undetected monitor - my ViewSonic PF790 is now being recognized). Some of it contains code that were cited previously as possible solutions (device names/identifiers). Unfortunately it isn't working for me. My Kernel is up to date and so is everything else to the best of my knowledge. ** Also affects: xubuntu-desktop Importance: Undecided Status: New -- gdm ignores timed/auto login on all but first greeter run https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/463314 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
