I understand the fact that if my computer is encrypted, I have to enter
the passphrase to log in. Makes sense.
My whish would be, that if a certain usb-stick (with an encyrpted passphrase)
is inserted in the pc the gdm log in automatically.
If I take my laptop elsewhere and i power it on

This is a known issue with current implementation and really not easily
fixable (I had that in mind in making the patch and we discussed it).
You should open a new bug report with that, please.

A new variant of the bug is present in the CD install of 10.04 LTS:
On a freshly installed system, with the first user having an encrypted

auto-login user is indeed blanked.
If a second user is added - also with an encrypted

In Karmic, the option of autologin is available in the Login Screen
Settings, even when home is encrypted. This just leaves the unaware and
unexperienced user at risk of making his computer unusable. Many people
I know like having their computer autologin. If they are not aware of
the problem, the
I see this is still an issue in 9.10 Karmic, since automatic login can
be activated even if the user has an encrypted home folder...

If an account is set to auto-login - no matter if it's encrypted or not
- the behaviour should be that it will autologin. The current behaviour
(gdm failure) is not desirable. It would be better to explicitly

I'm sorry, but an encrypted home directory and gdm-autologin are two
features that are simply incompatible.
We handled this in the installer by allowing you to only one of 3 different
options:
1) auto login (no password)
2) login with a password
3) login with a password and decrypt your home
Dustin, that should not block login though should it?

Sebastien-
If you encrypt your home directory, you absolutely *must* enter a
password on login.
If you want to add some code to GDM, when doing an auto-login that
detects this, that's fine too. In fact, I think that might be a good
idea.
