Disable auto-login on Tinkerboard with Xfce












0















I'm testing an ASUS Tinkerboard. The board is powered by Debian 9.8, and uses LightDM and Xfce. The Linaro user is configured to auto-login.



According to LightDM | Autologin on the Debian wiki the behavior is controlled via autologin-user and autologin-user-timeout. This board does not have those settings enabled:



$ cat /usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/01_debian.conf
# Debian specific defaults
# ...

[Seat:*]
greeter-session=lightdm-greeter
greeter-hide-users=true
session-wrapper=/etc/X11/Xsession


And:



$ sudo grep -IR autologin-user /usr/share/lightdm/
$


How do I disable the auto-login feature for this board?





There are quite a few questions that ask for the opposite (enable auto-login), like auto login on xfce in jessie. They state to create the conf file with the name/value pairs. I'm a bit confused since I can't seem to reverse the process.
