[SOLVED]KDM auto-login issue

Hi All. After I've configured VSFTPD server with PAM authorization method (virtual users), I'm unable  to set auto-login option. I have enabled auto-login checkbox as usually but KDM always asks me for login and password after every reboot. Can someone know how to fix this problem? Thanks.

Re: [SOLVED]KDM auto-login issue

Hello for the first time!

I have also autologin issue but I would say my KDM is configured rather "normally", so I'm using it on my private computer to enter into kde without any typing or pressing enter. Although I haven't changed any settings, autologin stopped working today(?) - now I see KDM's screen and need to type password or press enter instead of being directly logged in.

I use up-to-date Arch 64 bit with KDE 4.3.4 from official repo. There is nothing interesting in logs and here comes my /usr/share/config/kdm/kdmrc:

[General]
ConfigVersion=2.4
ConsoleTTYs=tty1,tty2,tty3,tty4,tty5,tty6
PidFile=/var/run/kdm.pid

killall X also returns KDM's login screen.
killall kdm causes immediate direct logging into KDE (as it should).

Re: [SOLVED]KDM auto-login issue

Hi. Thanks for reply. So probably it seems to be not connected with PAM but it happend after todays update. First I've updated the system then without rebooting I started to configuring ftp server so that's why I thought that it's connected with PAM authorisation. What a coincidence.  My kdmrc file looks the same as yours so it looks like a bug.

Re: [SOLVED]KDM auto-login issue

I've changed the method of running KDM from deamon to inittab and it works fine now.

Re: [SOLVED]KDM auto-login issue

I have this method since installation and it doesn't work!

ca::ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -t3 -r now

DAEMONS=(syslog-ng network !netfs dbus hal crond alsa cpufreq)

More info: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Add … on_startup

Okay, it started to work properly after consolekit update (probably, who knows).

Re: [SOLVED]KDM auto-login issue

After update consolekit to 0.4.1-2 problem was solved. Checked with both methods (demon and inittab).
