| 02:33 | <eu^273447248> Question: is there a way to get every single client to login as a separate user automatically without manually setting AUTOLOGIN for every single MAC address in ltsp.conf?
| |
| 02:59 | <alkisg> Yes, as long as you can derive the username from the hostname using a regex
| |
| 03:42 | <eu^273447248> Yeah... so I'm doing it manually now...

| 07:28 | <vsuojanen> I wassetting up new ubuntu 20.4 ltsp installation AUTOLOGIN with gdm3 + default session Exec=env GNOME_SHELL_SESSION_MODE=ubuntu /usr/bin/gnome-session --systemd --session=ubuntu. It did not autologin at all. I was hoping it would login with the wayland session
| |
| 07:29 | <alkisg> vsuojanen: when you specified AUTOLOGIN, did you also set the PASSWORD?
| |
| 07:33 | <vsuojanen> no, I have used LIGHTDM and NFS homes before and it worked without that in ltsp.conf
| |
| 07:34 | <alkisg> Indeed with NFS homes it should work. Is the setup available now, can you paste the generated /etc/gdm/custom.conf?
| |
| 07:34 | (on the ltsp client)
| |
| 07:35 | <vsuojanen> ok. just a moment
| |
| 07:42 | https://pastebin.com/Zcs4LNey
| |
| 07:45 | alkisg: sorry I have to be away I'm not able to read the chat now for next couple hours
| |
| 10:09 | <alkisg> The generated /etc/gdm/custom.conf seems fine, I see no ltsp issue there
| |
| 11:21 | <vsuojanen> alkisg I think I have the default session missing from somewhere in gdm3 configuration. just haven't found it
| |
| 11:50 | the gear balloon on bottom right in gdm3 it's now Ubuntu for the autologin user and not Ubuntu (Wayland). This is just one issue with gnome-session, I think I continue testing the gnome some time and will switch to lightdm and mate-session, i think gnome-sesison require too much from clients in the environment
| |
| 12:01 | <alkisg> So autologin works, but it's using xorg instead of wayland?
| |
| 12:21 | <vsuojanen> the gear balloon tells it's using Ubuntu.
| |
| 12:23 | apparently it has not worked. I need to select Ubuntu (Wayland) from the gear balloon

| 12:25 | <vsuojanen> I can't see where and what configuration affects the default as I have in /usr/share/xsessions files mate.desktop and ubuntu.desktop
| |
| 13:19 | <alkisg> I still haven't understood if autologin works or not
| |
| 13:19 | "it works with the wrong session", or "it doesn't autologin"?
| |
| 13:19 | <vsuojanen> alkisg: thank you for your time, I was configuring custom session script for autologin where I had directly copied the Ubuntu.desktop line Exec=, and that's where the issue was. autologin resolved but it's not using wayland mode
| |
| 13:20 | <alkisg> The session type is also saved per-user, in either /var/lib/AccountsService or in ~/.dmrc etc
| |
| 13:20 | Does the problem happen in a newly created user?
| |
| 13:20 | Run `adduser test` directly on the ltsp client,
| |
| 13:20 | then edit custom.conf to specify the test user,
| |
| 13:20 | then systemctl restart gdm3, and see if it autologins on wayland
| |
| 13:20 | All that without client reboot
| |
| 13:21 | Btw, Ubuntu 20.04 defaults to xorg anyway, right?
| |
| 13:21 | So maybe you need to specify a gdm directive to default to wayland?
| |
| 13:27 | <vsuojanen> yes. I see. I thought it would be wayland default in Ubuntu all beginnning from the gdm
| |
| 13:28 | well autlogin, it is now working
| |
| 13:32 | I will worry about wayland if needed
| |
| 13:33 | thank you for the time
