Enable Automatic Login for GNOME on Linux Mint

If you wish to speed up your boot-time and totally not concerned with security, you may want to enable automatic login.

For Linux Mint, my favourite Linux desktop, you can use the command line to enable automatic login.

# vim /etc/gdm/gdm.conf

-----------------------------------------
[daemon]
......
AutomaticLoginEnable=true
AutomaticLogin=(your userid to login)
-----------------------------------------

Alternatively, you can use the gdmsetup to configure. See pix below.
