Linux Lite Forums

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

@stevf 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.
