j_bertolotti<p>Help request to the <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> hivemind: I got a <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Raspberry_Pi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Raspberry_Pi</span></a> 500 and created two users, a root and a non-root user for my son. For some reason the <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/RaspberryPiOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RaspberryPiOS</span></a> defaults to log you in without asking for a password, which in my case is undesirable (as I want my son to be able to log in his account without having to log out from mine). If I go in the setting I can disable this, but the side effect now is that lightdm doesn't manage to start when I boot, and has to be started manually by a root user (i.e. me) every time (n.b. without lightdm you can only access the shell and not the graphical interface).<br>How do I get out of this?</p><p>Thanks</p>
