Hello to all,

Under Ubuntu 18.04 and 20.04, I can't log in when I activate the autologin under GDM3.
I fall on the login window where I enter the password and then nothing. Impossible to connect.
I have a ryzen 5 1600af, 16 go of Ram and a b450 chipset.
Thanks in advance for your help!
 


if you are on black screen or on command line interface, then you need to enter username and then hit enter and then user-password. after that type startx and click enter.
 
Thank you, I have already done so.
But I want the autologin to work by default.
 
You can login into the system, switch to a virtual console(Ctrl+Alt+F1 - F6), then log into the system with your account details. From there you can check the log file to see why it is refusing your logins.
