I just upgraded to Mythbuntu 11.10, and everything is working great, except for one snag.

Automatic login has gone away.

When I try to call up the interface for setting it, the option to make the setting is grayed out, as shown in the picture below.

I have tried running the mythbuntu-control-centre as a regular user, and as root, and either way, I can't access the settings.

How do I get my autologin function back?

I played with the lightdm.conf (the one located at /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf not the one in /etc/init/) and got the auto login working for me:

[SeatDefaults]

user-session=mythbuntu

allow-guest=false

autologin-user=your username

greeter-session=mythbuntu-lightdm-gtk-greeter

Think that the greeter-session needed to be updated for mythbuntu.
