Re: [gdm-list] Fwd: How to autologin as root?

It's tracking this issue and points to the code that you would need to change.

Thx, it works.
Why gdm hard code this feature?
 A configuration options may be better.

The reason this isn't yet configurable is because nobody who cares about
the feature has provided a patch to manage this via a configuration
option.

For the time being, I wouldn't recommend working on this, though. We are in the middle of a GDM rewrite, and it probably makes sense to wait
a month or so and figure out how to make this work after the rewrite is
a bit further along.
