Created attachment 487975 [details] Fix autologin timeout problem Description of problem: I'm testing Fedora 15 Alpha. When I set my userid to autologin and do a reboot, ten seconds after the spinning wheel it comes up with a Fail box, telling me to Log Out. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-session-2.91.93 How reproducible: It fails every time. On the other hand, if I set my userid to "Autologin OFF", I have no problems manually logging in. Steps to Reproduce: 1. System -> System Settings -> User Accounts; perform Unlock; Click in the Automatic Login box until it says ON 2. Reboot 3. Observe the Fail box. Actual results: Autologin fails. Expected results: Autologin succeeds. Additional info: The problem is too short of a timeout. The attached patch fixes the problem. It changes the timeout to 60 seconds from 10 seconds. In fact, from /var/log/messages, it took 23s to establish my autologin session.
I think this is fixed in current builds of gnome-session.
Yes, it's fixed as far as I'm concerned. My patch changed the original 10s timeout to 60s; your code changed the original 10s timeout to 30s. I have not had an autologin failure with the 30s timeout value. All my autologins take just about 25s, according to timestamps in /var/log/messages, which imo is too near to 30s for comfort; I'd still vote for 60s because why not? But yeah, fixed, for me.
