I am using XFCE on a Raspberry Pi with Leap 15.6. Because there is only one user I want to autologin that user. In /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager there is an entry DISPLAYMANAGER_AUTOLOGIN, which I give the value of the username.
There are two problems.
Problem 1: After booting there is no login screen or a XFCE session started.
Problem 2: When I goto console 1 <Ctrl>+<Alt>+<f1>, login as root and give: "systemctl restart displaymanager" I do get a login screen, but no autologin.
Any suggestions?
I found some autologin_timeout value in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf, but did not find the proper location where to put this entry (might solve problem 1).
Ensure autologin-user= in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf contain the correct value AND NO TRAILING WHITESPACE (no spaces, tabs, etc..) That's my best guess (from the Archwiki). I use kdm3 and I avoid autologin as a security feature :) -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
