I'm sorry, but an encrypted home directory and gdm-autologin are two
features that are simply incompatible.
We handled this in the installer by allowing you to only one of 3 different
options:
1) auto login (no password)
2) login with a password
3) login with a password and decrypt your home directory contents
I believe this should be solved in the gdm Login Window Preferences -> Security
tab. The 'enable automatic login' option should be greyed out if the user has
an encrypted home directory,
$ mount | grep "on $HOME type ecryptfs"
seb128, I'm going to wishlist this against gdm.
