How to skip login screen on Lubuntu (17.04) - Lxqt












1















I just installed Lubuntu 17.04, and am testing out the not-officially-released LXQT window system for it. Everything seems to work great so far, aside from a few little bugs; the only one that really bothers me is that I can't seem to figure out how to set it to skip the login screen. I have edited the lightdm.conf every which way to no avail. Has anyone figured out how to do this?

          Turns out I was having trouble because LXQt is not using lightdm to login, it is using SDDM, so I created a configuration file at /etc/sddm.conf:



          nano /etc/sddm.conf


          and added the following text to it:



          [Autologin]
          User=username
          Session=lxqt.desktop
