This sounds like expected behaviour to me -- the login password is used to encrypt the filesystem key. Without a login password at login time, the files should be unavailable, and thus there's no home directory to contain anything of value for the user.
There might be a better way to tell the user that a password is required for encrypted home directories though. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1318030 Title: Cannot login-without-password when home folder in encrypted To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1318030/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
