| + | ====== lightdm autologin ====== | ||
| + | in order to automatically login a user on a xubuntu or any other linux that runs lightdm you can simply add the user to your lightdm.conf file | ||
| + | |||
| + | edit the file in / | ||
| + | < | ||
| + | autologin-user=myUsername | ||
| + | autologin-user-timeout=0 | ||
| + | </ | ||
| + | of course you need to replace myUsername with your actual username. | ||
| + | |||
| + | keep in mind that once you have this option set encrypting your home directory is probably very pointless... so if you want your user data protected don't use autologin! | ||
