Isn't this a countersense? Why not setting it true here by default and
leave from 01_debian.conf?

So, I tried setting it to true on 01_debian.conf:
lightdm --show-config
~
[sudo] password for alex:
[SeatDefaults]
A greeter-session=lightdm-greeter
A greeter-hide-users=true
A session-wrapper=/etc/X11/Xsession
[LightDM]
B greeter-session=lightdm-gtk-greeter
B greeter-hide-users=false
B greeter-allow-guest=false
Sources:
A /usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/01_debian.conf
B /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
It show correct order but on boot it ask for username...
Suggestions?
Thanks
