Title:
lightdm doesn't provide a gdmsetup type tool
Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
For natty there was a tool to configure automatic login and default
session. It was called 'gdmsetup' and it would write out a GDM
custom.conf for the user.
Oneiric doesn't provide any such tool. If a user configured automatic
login at install and changed their mind, they would need to manually
edit a lightdm configuration file by hand.
For people on natty who had automatic login enabled, the feature will
be lost on the oneiric upgrade (due to bug 854431) and they won't be
able to change it with any GUI tool.
