Hello,
I've been trying to get autologin working in LightDM on my mediacenter
without success. I believe I've copied all the instructions in the wiki
page, and I'm not seeing where the problem is.
mediacenter% cat /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf | grep -v "^#"
[LightDM]
minimum-vt=1
run-directory=/run/lightdm
autologin-user=family
autologin-user-timeout=0
[SeatDefaults]
session-wrapper=/etc/lightdm/Xsession
pam-service=lightdm-autologin
[XDMCPServer]
[VNCServer]
#End of file
mediacenter% groups
adm disk wheel games video audio optical floppy storage power users
family autologin
mediacenter% journalctl -b -u lightdm --no-pager

# the last line was my manual login after waiting several minutes.
Is there anything else I should be checking, or any caveats anyone is
aware of?
