Mandrake automatically logs into kde

MrPolite · 03-16-2003, 11:49 PM

I have mandrake 9... when I boot into it, it automatically logs in to kde without even asking me a username/pass. Each time I have to log out and then log in to gnome... this is sorta annoying. Anyone can tell me why this "auto logging in" thing is happening and how I can change it?
thank you

Ans 1 : because installation u set the option to do that.
Ans 2 : There is an option somewhere which say about autologin disable it and it will ask for username and password every time you start ur system

In Mandrake 9.0: Go to the Mandrake Control Center, give your root password, choose "boot"., choose "boot config", somewhere in the bottompart you can choose what WM you want to start up with.

For the autologin: Go to start, ControlCenter ( not the same as Mandrake Control Center ) , System, Loginmanager, last tab: convinience.
