So use this in ~/.profile (with the getty@tty1 autologin override in place):
Code: Select all
[ "$(tty)" = "/dev/tty1" ] && exec startx /usr/bin/startxfce4

No worries, that was my main concern, as to not leave my system vulnerable to external (or as you put it, non-local) attackers.Head_on_a_Stick wrote: I missed this explanation, sorry.
Will leave this config as such until somebody lets us know of any vulnerabilities.Head_on_a_Stick wrote:I can see no reason why security would be compromised for non-local attackers but I may be wrong.

I got it, so you want disable the locking after the resume, I found this:andoru wrote:Thanks for the suggestion, but this is a problem with the login screen when booting, as opposed to the lockscreen after suspending the machine.
After installing light-locker, it will auto start along your session and you will be able to lock your session with "light-locker-command -l".
This will redirect you to VT8 (assuming that your open session was on VT7 and is now kept safe by light-locker) and present LightDM's greeter for unlocking your session again.
On suspend/resume light-locker will lock the active session and redirect to the LightDM's greeter for unlocking the session again.
There is no support for gnome-settings-daemon in order to keep things slim, so you might have to add a custom keyboard-shortcut for this to work.
light-locker will automatically lock the session shortly after the X11 screen saver kicks in. The timeout can be set with --lock-after-screensaver. With xset the X11 screen saver can be adjusted.
Use --late-locking to avoid some of the negative effects of VT switching. This will lock the session on the deactivation of X11 screen saver instead of activation.
light-locker will automatically lock the session on suspend/resume. To disable this behaviour with --no-lock-on-suspend.
With --lock-on-lid light-locker will automatically lock the lid close.
With logind sessions can have an idle hint. This is used to perform some action after a timeout. Use --idle-hint to let light-locker set the idle hint, in case nothing else does.
