[SOLVED] Login Window - only guest session

Post by legloas »

LM version: LM 18.3 MATE -BETA

I marked in Login Window settings to hide user list at login screen.
after rebooting, the login screen have no option to login as an regular user, only the guest session.

Solution:
So to solve this I needed to edit the conf file manually:

Code: Select all

/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
setting

Code: Select all

greeter-hide-users=true
to false

Hi, morri.

The Mint greeter screen is the same for all desktop environments, Cinnamon, Mate, xfce.
So the file is /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
