Xubuntu Oneiric Auto Login

[jm.mico]

Wrong. Autologin works fine in Xubuntu.

Not that fine. My file

/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf

looks like:

[SeatDefaults]
autologin-user=jmico
autologin-user-timeout=0
autologin-session=lightdm-autologin
greeter-session=unity-greeter
user-session=xubuntu.desktop

and I have set it to not ask for password on login. Still I have to click on the lightdm to be able to login.

I must say I installed originally ubuntu, and then xubuntu-desktop. I hate this unity new stuff.

But, please, how do I get autologin ???

Thnks!!

Juanma.

i've now tried on a fresh installed xubuntu and there was no /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
i've created it like this

[SeatDefaults]
user-session=xubuntu
greeter-session=lightdm-gtk-greeter
autologin-user=your_user_name
autologin-user-timeout=0

and it works

in ubuntustudio user-session must be set as xfce

And Kdm have autologin, not only Lightdm.
After some time autologin was gone, found solution here.

Changed the Desktop which also acts as a file server to a rolling distribution. I've just not got the time to be trying to keep up with everything that changes on all the different computers I have. Laptops are still XUbuntu still since they can remain at the default settings!
