> well, maybe part of the issue is that people should not follow random
blogs on the internet telling them to do things

Well, perhaps that wouldn't be necessary if Ubuntu provided some
documentation regarding how to set up full system encryption. :-)

Anyway, unless you can point to something in that blog post that
inadvertently added the user account to the nopasswdlogin group, I fail
to see your point (I used the manual method, not the installation
script, so you can see all the commands and GUI steps used in the
process). Here's another "non-technical" user who appears to have run
into the same problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1662174.

It would be very helpful if we could identify how a user account might
come to be added to the nopasswdlogin group (aside from "technical"
users who know exactly what they're doing explicitly adding their
account to the group). It's clear that some people are ending up with
that setting without taking any explicit action to do so. Is it possible
that merely enabling auto-login upon installation results in the account
being added to the group? If not, any other ideas?
