      1. As you've probably already done, uncheck:
        "lock screen when screen saver is activated"
        in the System->Preferences->Screen Saver menu.

      2. Type gconf-editor in a terminal. Under apps/gnome-power-manager/locks check:
        "use_screensaver_settings".

      3. If still asked for password, you can (also in gconf-editor) go to desktop/gnome/lockdown and check:
        "disable_lock_screen"

      11.10 Solution

      1. First try the Lock/Unlock button in System Settings -> Personal -> Screen (suggested by brallan, below).

      2. If this doesn't work, try the command
        Code:
        gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.lockdown disable-lock-screen 'true'

        This is the file that needs to be edited:

        /etc/gdm3/daemon.conf

          In that file you should see this:

          # AutomaticLoginEnabled = true
          # AutomaticLogin = user
          

          Just remove the hashtags from the beginning of those two lines to uncomment them.

              Yup, then change "user1" to be the username of the user you want to be automatically logged in.

                    Not confirmed yet, but I'll post when I know.

                        From what I can tell, yes it worked. That's both the no sleep and no login password required.
