[SOLVED] Ubilinux auto logon

Michele

Hi,
today I've installed Ubilinux 3.0 and it work very well.
My problem is that i need to autologon at startup but ubilinux always ask me user and password.

Anyone can help me about that?

Thank You

David

My solved like this:

Turn off the password to user.
$ sudo visudo

Then:
#Autologin
$ sudo nano /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
autologin-user= "user-name" <- modify the existing line.

I've setup my ubilinux to boot directly into kodi (xbmc) by disabling the GUI and create a user without a password.

Are you trying to accomplish a similar setup ?

Michele

It works.

Thank You.

Hi, I was unable to get this to work with the latest version of ubilinux that is on this site.

It seems like "lightdm" isnt used any more.

Does anyone know how to get auto-logon to work now?

Hi @Michele,

Is that discussion closed? If so, could you redefine the discussion title as [RESOLVED] Ubilinux auto logon

Dear all,

to autologon is sufficient to do what is written here https://forum.up-community.org/discussion/2440/auto-login-and-run-application-with-ubilinux4-up-squared
Create the file /etc/sddm.conf and place the following in it:

[Autologin]
User=yourusernamehere
Session=lxqt.desktop

Cheers!
