There's the problem, change that to false. I wonder if this is such
an old install (originally) that the userid is below 1000. What are
the results of "id tkevans" and "id evanstimk"?
Making this edit did not change anything. The newly created userid
(that created at first boot of the upgraded system) is still the
default shown by the GDM login screen. clicking "not listed?" allows
login via the original account.
Did you reboot after changing that file? Otherwise, you need to at
least restart the account service (can't remember the name) and gdm.
Yes, several times. I have also successively: (1) restored the contents
of /var/lib/AccountsService/users from my last F29 backup; (2) moved the
newly created userid's file completely out of that directory; and (3)
moved my normal userid's /etc/passwd entry to the end of the file (i.e.,
after the new userid's entry), retaining UID and GID of both. Each step
with a reboot.
Nothing's changed. Does gdm have a config somewhere that controls this?
Nothing I can see in /etc/gdm or /var/lib/gdm.
What tells the system to run 'gnome-initial-setup'? (As noted, deleting
the (new) userid it creates causes it to run again as soon as you log
off, intercepting the gdm login screen and forcing creation of a user.)
