"About Me" (mugshot) from Menu.

Edit: Oh sorry, that's a different question.

Code: Select all

sudo nano /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
under the [SeatDefaults] section:

#greeter-hide-users=true

(comment out like this, put a # at the beginning)

In new AVL you can use Accessories-->'System Editor' and open the lightdm configuration file from there. In the screenshot below you can also set full Autologin if wanted by putting your username in the line 126 where it says 'demo'..

Hmm....

i have this two lines:
Line 66 # greeter-hide-users = True to hide the user list

Line 109 #greeter-hide-users=false

How is the right adjustment?

Just the one under the [SeatDefaults] section:

Probably Line 109 #greeter-hide-users=false

just uncomment. Do it like:

greeter-hide-users=false


(Or just paste greeter-hide-users=false somewhere under [SeatDefaults] then save, close.)
