Description Takahito Hirano 2015-11-30 12:56:28 UTC 
After I updated GDM to 3.18.2 from 3.14.2, timed login stopped working. The log message says:

gdm3: Tried to look up non-existent conversation gdm-autologin

I'm not sure but hhttps://git.gnome.org/browse/gdm/commit/?id=5e36a56db16cacf474cfd87a9f290f88c90c0aea looks suspicious to me, because it removed the call of gdm_session_start_conversation (session, "gdm-autologin") when timed login is enabled.

Hi Ray (who is committer of https://git.gnome.org/browse/gdm/commit/?id=5e36a56db16cacf474cfd87a9f290f88c90c0aea), 

Can you confirm this issue?
