Thanks for the gift. Passwordless login is not the job of display managers, is it? (Would be a fine convenience for a Qt-only environment.)

You are welcome :)

Passwordless login can be done in the display manager, just like auto login where you only provide user name.

But I don't know how it is used in general. When it is turned on should we be able log in as any user without presenting a password, or should we set that for a few users? Or should we just accept authentication using empty passwords?

I am confused..

Sorry, in fact, I was trying to say "auto login" :) That is, if one's got a single WM/DE (Fluxbox in my case) s/he logins automatically without entering anything, but if there're more than one WM/DEs display manager offers to choose any of them without asking for password.

Hmm. We have auto login, but logs into the last session used by default. If you want, you can set the LastSession in the config file to fluxbox.desktop and log into fluxbox automatically.

Presenting a list to the user would create extra work for the theme-makers because it needs a completely different user interface.

Great. I don't have or need any other WM. Thanks.

I would like this feature. I would like for my kids to be able to log on without entering passwords. I could do this in KDM (on Kubuntu 14.04.4) and after upgrading and switching to SDDM I (they) really miss this feature.

Basically, I would like to be able to define a list in sddm.conf (like HideUsers), e.g. PasswordlessUsers, with users that can log in without entering their password. Only administrators should be able to define this list.
