Description Michael Boisvert 2017-04-28 20:03:01 UTC
Description of problem: Timed login via the custom.conf method is not working anymore. 

How reproducible: 100%

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Add following lines into file:  /etc/gdm/custom.conf
          [daemon]
          TimedLoginEnable=true
          TimedLogin=$username
          TimedLoginDelay=10
2. Run "systemctl restart gdm"

Actual results: The timed login progress bar never appears and the user is never automatically logged in after 10 second. 

Expected results: The specified user is automatically logged in after the specified 10 seconds.

Comment 3 Ray Strode [halfline] 2017-06-06 18:26:59 UTC
can you put Enable=true in the [debug] section of /etc/gdm/custom.conf and then reproduce and post the output of jouranctl -ba and the files in /var/log/gdm ?
