I will add these lines to /etc/securetty in the next Debian package. Why did you included the displays from 0 to 63? (Is 63 the maximum, or is it just meant to be mostly complete?) If 63 is not the maximum, I would prefer to reduce the number of displays to a more reallistic value (i.e. I do not expect so many displays on systems were empty passwords are allowed), but maybe also add support for systems with multiple heads (i.e. also support :0.1).
I submitted http://bugs.debian.org/528015 to update the documentation or securetty, since this usage is quite different from what is currently documented. ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #528015 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=528015 -- users with no password can't log in with gdm https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/104957 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
