    [SOLVED]boot without password

    Hello,

    I have just updated from Kubuntu 10.04 to 10.10. After restarting my machine I get a screen with my username and asking for a password. I had my 10.04 running so that I could boot up without a password. I only needed to use one to get superuser privileges. I would like to keep it that way. Should I use that password? There is also a drop down list with these three options:
    Default (previous)
    KDE
    Failsafe

    Which (if any) of these should I choose. It is a nice clean updated Kubuntu and I would like to start without pressing all the wrong knobs.

    Thanks for any help.

    John

    you use a regular KDE session(this should be the default option). use your password to login(same as your sudo password...).
    then you can set up autologin back up.to do so look in

    System Settings->Login Screen->Convenience(last tab on right).

    check the Enable Auto-login checkbox and set the user then click apply (you should be prompted for your sudo password. and on next boot you should be auto loged in.
