Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

For 10.04RC, added three different users (admin and desktop) with password required for each. Used the System admin "users and groups" function. But, at boot-up, no log-in requirement occurs and o/s boots up automatically.

I expected ubuntu to boot-up to the log-in portion and to have one of the three log-ins and passwords required for a full boot-up. This is what has happened/occured for all previous Ubuntu versions.

This also shows up in the remastersys process. A remastersys iso from Ubuntu 10.04RC boots up but then results in a log-in requirement which has an authentication failure. I am assuming the two issues are related.

For further claification, I did a full Ubuntu 10.04 RC installation on to an 8GB usb flash (which I have done with a number of previous Ubuntu versions).

Thank you for reporting this to Ubuntu. This is not a Firefox issue, so I am removing Firefox from the report. Can you please go to System > Administration > Login Screen and ensure that "Show the screen for choosing who will log in" is selected?

Thanks so much....a little embarrasing! Is that a new menu item....the Login Screen? In any case, that fixed the issue. Sorry to bother you busy professional developers! Thanks again.

Yes, this menu entry has gone through a lot of changes in the past months, so it may not be as familiar to users. I'm glad we were able to resolve the issue for you! Since this does not appear to be a bug, I am marking this report Invalid. Please continue to report any issues you encounter!
