Can you remind me how to switch from one DM to another? I know I used to know, but right now cannot recall the proper incantations.
systemctl disable gdm.service systemctl enable lightdm.service (reboot or stop gdm and start lightdm from a VT)

Thanks for the reminder!
unfortunately, the problem still exists: after standby, when waking up I still get a prompt for my password.
Surely that's desired behaviour. I always want my machine to wake up locked - who knows who is in front of the screen - password check ensures I get to choose. The alternative (say a public facing machine kiosk) would be to make sure there is no password set.
