Hi
I did realize exactly that using sddm and adding the (normally always available) /etc/sddm.conf with the adequate parameters, see my other recent postings on this forum!
my actual sddm.conf:
Code: Select all
[Autologin]
Relogin=false
Session=QLubuntu.desktop
User=Jo
[General]
AutoRelogin=true
AutoUser=f
CursorTheme=
HaltCommand=/usr
good luck!

This depends upon who your display manager is. See
http://lxlinux/login-pswd.html for recipes for the 3 most common light display managers. The file
/etc/X11/default-display-manager should name your display manager. If not, put the following in terminal and click the return key:
Code: Select all
</var/lib/dpkg/status awk '
/^Package: / {package = $2}
/^Provides: .*x-display-manager/ {print package}'
