"gdm menu" → is that System → Administration → Login Window
configuration program? (i. e. gdmsetup). Or the login screen itself,
which you see when you start the computer and disabled automatic
login?
I played around with gdmsetup a bit: Switched the automatic login user
two times, disabled automatic login in favor or timed login ("Allow 10
seconds for other users to login"), and reenabled it again, etc. This
all worked, so I really need very precise details about what's wrong
here.
>From what I could understand from the bug trail so far, your problem
seems to be that custom.conf gets broken as soon as you change
something. However, you obfuscated your custom.conf in the bug trail
(like in comment 42) to say "<username>" instead of the actual
username, so it's not clear to me whether it had a working one or an
invalid one (which seemed to be the case in the meantime).
So, I understand that right now you have working autologin for the
"gg" or "ggserv" user. What do you try to to in gdmsetup (please
describe the exact steps), how does custom.conf look before and after?
I. e. in which steps can you reproduce the broken custom.conf?
