UPDATE: As I learn more I have found that casper 1.340.2 is working fine, but that there is no support for mdm, the login manager for Linux Mint. Here is a patch to add that will make it work:
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/casper-bottom/15autologin: Add in a MDM section like below: if [ -f /root/etc/mdm/mdm.conf ]; then # Configure MDM autologin MDMConfFile=/root/etc/mdm/mdm.conf AutomaticLoginParameters="AutomaticLoginEnable=true\n\ AutomaticLogin=$USERNAME\n\ TimedLoginEnable=false" # Prevent from updating if parameters already present (persistent usb key) if ! $(grep -qs '^AutomaticLogin' $MDMConfFile); then sed -i "s/\[daemon\]/\[daemon\]\n$AutomaticLoginParameters/" \ $MDMConfFile fi fi With that above addition, casper is "auto logging in" with MDM as the display manager. ** Summary changed: - casper 1.340.2 + trusty: with remastersys goes to login screen instead of direct to Live Session + MDM support for casper -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1484844 Title: MDM support for casper To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/1484844/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
