Status in Light Display Manager: Fix Released Status in Light Display Manager 1.10 series: Fix Released Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “lightdm” source package in Trusty: In Progress Status in “lightdm” source package in Utopic: Fix Released Bug description: [Impact] If LightDM is set up for timed login this only occurs on first login, i..e after a session logout timed login is not reattempted. This doesn't match the traditional behaviour of GDM. A common use case for timed login is kiosk setups where the greeter should never be displayed for any significant amount of time; this is currently impossible to set up with LightDM. [Test Case] 1. Setup LightDM to do a timed login 2. Wait for timeout (session starts) 3. Log out of session Expected result: The session is started again after the timeout. Observed result: The greeter is show forever. [Regression potential] There is some risk that someone might have been relying on the existing behaviour. The assumption is that most timed login users would prefer the new behaviour. There is a small risk that these changes may have broken something else, this has been reduced by using the regression tests.
