Avoiding password all the time

[FatRakoon]

I am fully aware of the implications of not using a password and of using the root account all the time.

But.
The constant asking for the password every time I try to do anything.

I need to stop it. Its irritating and just as annoying as Windows when it does it.

I have used Ubuntu as that has allowed me to bypass the login but I want it completely gone.

Anyone know how to stop it then please let me know?

Thanks.

Hey up guys, I need to clear thigns up here.

The PC that I want this done on, is my daughters PC.

What possible reason could she have, for being worried that anyone might somehow be able to log on to her PC, and lets just say that somehow anyone is able to... What on earth could they possibly want to gain?

Seriously, she only want to turn on the PC and talk to her mates on facebook.

The level of paranoia is making me laugh out loud so hard that I am actually letting out a bit of wee.

Seriously though, this ammount of paranoia is beyond stupid.

From the people who develop Linux, through to the end user.

Sure, enter a username and password when you log on, but seriously, you dont need to enter your password every 2 minutes when you do anything. Sure, use one when you log in, but that should be it!

Sure if I have something to hide, such as porn etc, then I would want it to be a bit more secure, but come on... This is a PC in a little girls room that at best, has love letters to some boys in school, and at worst notes called me a knobhead.

Ok ok, its not asking for EVERYTHING, I grant you.

However, while there is no root enabled as such, it does ask for her password fairly often.

This REALLY does happen though...

She starts it up, she needs to enter her user name and her password.

She tried to go onto the internet and the wireless is not connected to anything so she connects to my router and for that she needs to enter her password again.

She cannot install a thing unless she also enters her name yet again... It goes on.

The thing is that its her PC and I trust her totally to not do anythign that she does not know about.

In my house the kids have grown up with computers all around them, they have used their own computers since they were toddlers and they have NEVER wrecked them in any way shape or form, and even if they did, it will only take me a few minutes to sort out or if need be, reinstall so its not anythign Im worried about.

My daughter, and indeed my sons too, are extremely computer literate, as are most kids these days. and she relly wants to move to Linux but having to enter her password is the only thing that bugs her.

And I suppose, when moving from Windows, it IS annoying.
