Bug#1094353: live-config: Autologin not honored with LightDM/Plasma 6 on Trixie(testing)
Package: live-config
Version: 11.0.5
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: arjenbalfoort@hotmail.com
Dear Maintainer,
Building a live ISO on Trixie (testing).
Since the Plasma 6 upgrade I am unable to autologin a live session.
Trixie version info:
ii lightdm 1.32.0-6+b1
ii plasma-workspace 4:6.2.5-1
live-config is configured in /etc/live/config.conf.d/solydxk.conf:
export LIVE_HOSTNAME="solydxk"
export LIVE_USERNAME="solydxk"
export LIVE_USER_FULLNAME="SolydXK Live user"
export LIVE_USER_DEFAULT_GROUPS="adm,audio,bluetooth,cdrom,dialout,fax,floppy,fuse,lpadmin,netdev,plugdev,powerdev,sambashare,scanner,sudo,tape,users,vboxsf,vboxusers,video,systemd-journal"
This results in a configured /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf:
[Seat:*]
autologin-user=solydxk
autologin-user-timeout=0
Adding live-config.username=solydxk to the boot parameter did not solve the issue.
I am unable to pinpoint whether this is a live-config or a lightdm issue. However, because the Plasma 5 ISO and the Xfce4 Trixie ISOs do autologin I suspect that lightdm is already started before live-config finishes the configuration.
If needed I can upload a Plasma 6 ISO to our server.
