Hello,
As Bodhilinux is Ubuntu18 based, i hope these links will help you here:
and there: www.bodhilinux.com/w/configuring-your-new-bodhi-system/ B: System Settings This area will assist your with setting various system settings. 1) Date and Time The Sync from Internet button will help you run NTP (network time protocol). Edit Date and Time will allow you to manually configure your date and time settings. Change Timezone provides a drop-down menu to select your timezone 2) Keyboard Layout Simply select your keyboard layout from the drop-down menu and click Apply Selected. 3) Light DM Use this area to set guest access, autologin-user, autologin-user-timeout and autologin–session. |

No this is not good info
Bodhi does not use GDM but LightDM.
sudo nano /etc/lightdm/lightdm.config
autologin-guest=false
autologin-user=stefan
autologin-user-timeout=0
replace stefan with your account name for no password or let it empty for lightdm greeter with prompt for user and paswd.
Stefan

sudo nano /etc/lightdm/lightdm.config .config or .conf? i don't have that file so asking to clarify. all of the other files in lightdm that i have are .conf. autologin-guest=false autologin-user=stefan autologin-user-timeout=0 would they need to comment out the last two lines to not log in automatically? |
