[SOLVED] Disable prompt for password

Hickory · 2016-02-25 15:50:31

First, i am thrilled that Bunsenlabs has continued to be what Crunchbang was.
With the release of RC2, I believe it is up to speed.
I have one difficulty now. How do i disable the prompt for login after i've been away from the computer?
I have unchecked "lock screen after resume" in XFCE power management to no avail. Is there a setting somewhere
to disable the login prompt?
Thank You

Edit (as root) `/etc/xdg/autostart/light-locker.desktop`, and add this at the bottom

Hidden=true

EDIT: This will enable it for all users, and may not survive a future upgrade. Copying `light-locker.desktop` to the user's `.config/autostart` may be the better option

Should you still want to be able to lock your screen on occasions, another thing to check before disabling light-locker is the "Display" tab of the Power Manager settings. Move all the sliders over to the left (ie "never") and see if it helps.
