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 password at the GM login screen.
I eventually found a different resolution at ubuntu forums http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=12777&page=2. The thread is very old but the solution still works with Karmic. The only difference is to change the location of /etc/X11/gdm/nopassusers.txt to /etc/gdm/nopassusers.txt -- auto-login settings not migrated https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/396459 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
