Bug Description
Just installed a fresh copy of Dapper Flight-2, and I notice a werid problem
with GDM.
I enabled the "timed log-in" option, and also the "automatic" log-in.
It works fine.
Problem: I then disabled both options, but it has no effect. That is, it will
still log me automatically when I start the machine, and if I log-out, it will
log me back in automatically after 30 seconds.
I thought maybe it could be a problem in gdm-setup which perhaps failed to
update the gdm configuration file properly, but no.
Here are the relevant (I think?!) lines of /etc/gdm/gdm.conf
[daemon]
# Automatic login, if true the first local screen will automatically logged
# in as user as set with AutomaticLogin key.
AutomaticLoginE
AutomaticLogin=
# Timed login, useful for kiosks. Log in a certain user after a certain
# amount of time
TimedLoginEnabl
TimedLogin=vincent
TimedLoginDelay=30
According to that file, I have indeed disabled both automatic and timed log-in.
But gdm somehow acts as if they were still enabled !
Anything I can do to help, just ask...
