Thank you Nikola for your effort with determining why Don't ask for
password on login was greyed out. I tried your solution of creating
the nopasswdlogin group and it did indeed allow that option to be
selected. However, upon restarting, the users that I selected still had
to enter their
Click manage groups and add a group called nopasswdlogin. After that it won't
be greyed out.
I had to look through the source code to figure this out. The nopasswdlogin
group should be created by default IMHO.

Great, thanks for bearing with me. So, I believe I fixed your original

ubiquity 1.99.0 was uploaded yesterday, so I guess it includes the user-

I used the login window utility from system/administration/login
window. This is not here anymore.
Indeed, there's a separate bug for that. Robert Ancell wants to look
into writing a replacement.
I have now gone into all of gdm conf.
Dave, your gdm.conf does not actually have autologin:
AutomaticLoginEnable=false
AutomaticLogin=
# Timed login, useful for kiosks. Log in a certain user after a certain amount
# of time.
TimedLoginEnable=false
TimedLogin=
TimedLoginDelay=30
Where did you enable autologin before?

This bug is really ruining the karmic testing experience. Is it possible
to go back to previous gdm until this is worked out upstream? Example
like firefox 3-5 not being default until its ready. Thanks
