Autologin doesn't work #394

Closed Linuxbeta closed 2 years ago

Linuxbeta commented 2 years ago

When automatic login on start-up is selected on pop!_OS 22.04 beta, the pc doesn´t automatically login on start-up. Can you please fix this, so the pc will automatically login on start-up? Thanks!

I am unable to reproduce this. Did you install from the latest iso, and are all updates installed? If yes to both. Please provide more information.

Same here. My wife's laptop does Auto login every time.

I upgraded from 21.10 to 22.04 a week ago and have all updates installed. Just checked again this morning. It seems that it only asks for a login when the screen is turned off. Didn´t know for sure if I had this issue with 21.10 or not, but I don´t think so, because I only noticed it since the upgrade to 22.04.

Just checked my screen settings, but I have turned all automatic screen lock etc. off, see attached print screen:

Does this help as additional information?

@Linuxbeta your attachment didn't come through. I don't think attaching images to emails works for Github comments.

To clarify, it sounds like the issue is with automatic screen locking, not with autologin, right? I don't think autologin necessarily disables the screen lock.

Linuxbeta commented 2 years ago

@leviport I only seem to have this issue when turning my pc on, and turning my screen on (or switch the input from my screen) to my pc. When I let my pc on and turn off my screen, while later turning on my screen, the issue don't occur.

Regarding the immage: it was a screenshot of the settings menu, under 'privacy' and submenu 'screen', in which you can see that the automatic screen lock is disabled.

Screenshot from 2022-04-15 00-03-04 So your settings looks something like that? And still after switching screen input or for example moving your mouse with the screen off it does ask for password? Does it ask for password too when turning PC on? Trying to understand if its happening on all situations or just after a black screen (screen off)

It looks like that, only the option 'blank screen delay' is set to 'never´ and 'lock screen on suspend' is also turned off, see:

The problem does only occur when I boot my PC and have the screen off, or have another input then my pc on my screen when booting my PC. The problem does not occur when I'm logged in after booting, or when I have the screen on during booting and I turn my screen off after the PC fully booted.

It seems the latest updates have fixed the problem. Thanks!
