So, why not change to a manual log in. Why not? It´s more secure in the case, that there´s someone other in your family, who wants to change your files, or just read them (this could be happen.).
The question is not: "Why should we do it?" It´s just "Why *shouldn´t* we do it?"
If there is only a single user account present, logging in automatically is better usability. Autologin allows the system to fully boot up incl. to connect to WLANs and not stop at KDM. During boot one can leave the room. If more than one account is created, the account manager should ask to disable autologin. Seriously, you are just a corner case and corner cases like you can be bothered to untick a little checkbox once. If you really want that rudimentary security, a way better option is to enable autologin but then set the option to automatically lock the screen after login. That way the system loads completely (incl. network connections) and your corner case is still solved. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
