From 72066a939e1e4bf5e9b88d1cf72f1f9492295c10 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Laager Date: Thu, 5 Dec 2019 01:27:41 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] Ubuntu: Disable gnome-initial-setup Fixes #9628 "After completing the optional step 8.2b, rebooting the machine confusingly tries to walk you through the new user setup process even though local users have been created. The workaround for this on Ask Ubuntu https://askubuntu.com/a/1039368 is to modify /etc/gdm3/custom.conf ... Then one is presented with the typical login screen instead of always being asked to create a new user." It's been a while since I have tested an GUI install from scratch. I'm taking this report at face value until I have a chance to test again. --- Ubuntu-18.04-Root-on-ZFS.md | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) diff --git a/Ubuntu-18.04-Root-on-ZFS.md b/Ubuntu-18.04-Root-on-ZFS.md index d2cea2b..7a5a765 100644 --- a/Ubuntu-18.04-Root-on-ZFS.md +++ b/Ubuntu-18.04-Root-on-ZFS.md @@ -599,6 +599,8 @@ Choose one of the following options: 8.2b Install a full GUI environment: apt install --yes ubuntu-desktop + vi /etc/gdm3/custom.conf + In the [daemon] section, add: InitialSetupEnable=false **Hint**: If you are installing a full GUI environment, you will likely want to manage your network with NetworkManager:
