Bug Description

Effected Distribution is KDE 15.10 Daily Build from last night.

Navigation: System Settings > Personalisation > Account Details > User Manager > Auto Login.

Setting this value for the Admin User requests Root password however the underlying software does not make the proper changes to implement Auto Login nor does it preserve the value.

I found the proper Navigation to make this change.

It is Login Screen(SDDM) > Advanced > Auto Login.

The duplication of these panels needs to be eliminated and the correct code Invoking the SDDM version of Auto Login should be implemented off the Systems Settings navigation.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

The issue that you reported is one that should be reproducible with the live environment
of the Desktop ISO of the development release - Xenial Xerus.

It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work on getting
it fixed in the next release of Ubuntu.

You can find out more about the development release at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/.

Thanks again and we appreciate your help.
