Chris, With the following packages installed and the workaround removed the issue no longer occurs for me when enabling Automatic Login via Settings. I have tested rebooting and starting from off several times and it worked as expected each time. Previously the issue occurred on every boot.
gdm3 (3.36.3-0ubuntu0.20.04.1) libgdm1 (3.36.3-0ubuntu0.20.04.1) gir1.2-gdm-1.0:amd64 (3.36.3-0ubuntu0.20.04.1) nvidia-driver-450 (450.66-0ubuntu0.20.04.1) /etc/default/grub ``` GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" ``` Of note, when the desktop loaded I was greeted with the Ubuntu new user "Connect Your Online Accounts" setup screen and what appeared to be a fresh users settings. If this happens to anyone here there's a helpful README.txt in ~/ reminding you that you encrypted your home directory, and to run ecryptfs-mount-private to gain access. Oh yeah... You can also expect to be prompted to unlock your login keyring at some random moment a few minutes after the desktop loads. Anyway, wonderful work, and thanks to everyone who helped fix this, at least for me. :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1845801 Title: [nvidia] Automatic login fails and then all subsequent logins fail.
