Gdm login screen presents a list of all users on the system to choose from. I don't want the list, just a prompt for a username and password. I tried # gconf-editor this graphical config program allows to set in apps / gdm / simple-greeter the setting 'disable_user_list' to checked (default is not checked) after setting it to checked, closing the program, rebooting I still have the user list at the gdm login window. I verified with starting the gconf-editor again: the option is still checked .. (also $ gconftool-2 -R /apps/gdm/simple-greeter shows: disable_user_list = true ) Why do I still have the user list? How to fix?
