Full Version: Enable Auto Login doesn't work
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I've been trying to enable auto login for hours and it doesn't seem to work.
I perform all steps needed to enable auto login by clicking SYSTEM=>LOGIN SETTINGS=>ENABLE AUTO LOGIN and I get the positive confirmation at the end.
After restart I can see the login screen again. I tried to reinstall lightdm packgace but it didn't help.
Is there a place - the config file - where I can set this manually? How to check if the ENABLE AUTO LOGIN option is realy on or off?

Linux Lite 3.8
it doesn't seem to work on my machine.  Is there a way to verify in config files if the option is set to on or off? Maybe a module or sth else stopped loading at startup?

OK, I know what to change to make it work, but I dont' know WHY...

Yesterday I put a new line in /etc/modules-load.d/modules.conf to activate the new module "nvidia.conf". This is new module and it only enables AGP 4x on my GeForce 6600GT GPU.
From that time auto login stopped working. I deleted the "nvidia.conf" module from /etc/modules-load.d/modules.conf so no module is loaded in this file anymore (the nvidia.conf was the only module to load here) and now auto login works again.

Conclusion: activating any module in /etc/modules-load.d/modules.conf interferes witch auto login function.
I dont know why.

Maybe someone can figure it out? Now I have to chose to have AGP 4x working or Auto Login working.
