sorry if what i will say won't make a lot of sense but here is how i solved the problem in my pc:
1st i noticed that in gdm.conf file both AutomaticLoginEnable and TimedLoginEnable were true although i had disabled timed login using startup manager. and the second thing i did was to put a higher value at GdmXserverTimeout. I set it 20 and automatic login works again for me -- Jaunty's GDM Autologin doesn't work anymore https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/370541 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
