Title:
  gdmsetup "autologin" setting disagrees with user-admin "Password:
  Asked on login" setting

Status in “gdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gdm

  In gdmsetup, I can set myself to autologin with a particular account.
  However, if I run users-admin, that account says "Password: asked on
  login", even though it's *not* asked on login (because I've got
  autologin turned on). This is mightily confusing to people who do not
  understand how the underlying bits all fit together, i.e., everybody
  :)
