I have a service that launches a Qt GUI application at startup. However, right before the GUI is ran, the Angstrom login screen can be seen for about 1 second while the application is loading. Is there a way to hide or disable the login? I suppose I could display a splash screen for the application, which would put it on top of the login, but if I can hide the login altogether, that would be preferred. Thanks!
Even I am on the same situation. Trying to find a way!
Disable GDM and start your Qt application in frame buffer (-qws) ?
Thanks, but I’m not using gnome so I don’t have the gdm service. I’m talking about the terminal login.
I guess you could disable all virtual consoles in /etc/inittab ; you might want to enable serial and/or remote (SSH) login in case anything goes weird.

I remember, long back I have achieved this my using mingetty
exec /sbin/mingetty --autologin exnxt tty1

Actually, since it seems that Angstrom uses systemd instead of inittab, you will want to edit the /etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/getty@tty1.service and replace the ExecStart command.

That worked. Thanks!
I also am using a BBB and need to auto login and use Qt. Could you provide some code on how launch Qt and bypass the login?
