Hi, I will try but then the session keyring won't be unlocked at login and it can complicate things afterwards (just speculating, and needs to be tried). What I would like is bypass gdm login screen when switching between open sessions. Something like that :
1 - I'm connected and the only connected user. My wife wants to connect. She chooses "switch user ...", gdm appears and she connects. 2 - Then I want to go back to my session. Below or above "switch user ...", there's a list of already connected users. I choose my name and I'm back to my session (locked or unlocked, it depends on the locking settings I choose). Or ideally, a static list of fast-switching-users is always displayed (possibly with a check indicating if it's already connected or not). You only have to choose your name in the list. If you are already connected (or with password-less login), it switches to/opens directly your session, else it opens gdm with the right user already selected and you only have to type your password in. I don't think this bypasses any security thing, it just eases switching between sessions. Do you think it could fit into the actual design? Is it possible with an extension? And thanks for your suggestions. ----- Mail original ----- De: "Gabriel Rossetti" <[email protected]> À: "Ray Strode" <[email protected]>, [email protected] Cc: [email protected], "Gabriel Rossetti" <[email protected]> Envoyé: Mercredi 22 Février 2012 09:12:50 Objet: RE: The lost screenwaiter [Was: The lost screensaver] Hi, I wouldn’t run passwd –d username, that will allow anyone to remote into your machine with no password unless I’m mistaking... There is an option somewhere to allow password-less logins on the UI, I’d use that if I were you.
