Bug Description
I work with a computer lab consisting of 9 CPUs with 2 seats each one. I have used Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on them and now I'm trying Ubuntu 15.04. In both cases, I set autologin as guest in all seats with a timeout of 60 seconds.
After some reboots, I've noticed that one of the seats stops performing autologin after the timeout. However, if I set autologin timeout to 0 on that seats, they perform autologin as expected.
Once timed autologin starts to fail on some seats, it won't go back to normal, even if I reboot or power off the computer. It only goes back to normal if I reinstall lightdm.
[UPDATE] I realised that timed autologin actually fails if user in question (also applies for guest) is selected in user list when timeout reaches 0. However, if I select another user before timeout reaches 0, autologin for configured user works as expected. Got hint from https:/
Verified with lightdm-
Is this bug somehow related to Bug 854261 ?
