What is in your "/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf"? Toggling an user autologin control in the UI makes that value change correctly for me on saucy.
e.g having it on for the user "ubuntu" makes the config get "autologin- user=ubuntu", turning it off changes that line to "autologin-user=" -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1245915 Title: Can't change auto login status to "no" in Ubuntu or Ubuntu GNOME Saucy after "yes" is selected Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I've been testing alternative DE's in both Ubuntu and Ubuntu GNOME Saucy and I've been selecting "auto-login" during installation of the OS. I now notice that going to System Settings > User Accounts and changing the automatic login status from on to off has no effect. Since it effects both Ubuntu and Ubuntu GNOME it's also fair to say it effects both lightdm and gdm.
