Looking for a way to have the Ubuntu login screen "remember" the last logged in username, so that I just have to press enter to reuse the last login name, and then it goes straight to the password prompt.
Under system->administration->login window, I currently have it set to show the list of users, so I can click on my full name. Ideally though, I would like the username to be prefilled, and just have to press enter, and then type my password, without using the mouse.
I.e. I am fine with my username being disclosed to anyone who walks up to the login screen, but I still want to have to authenticate myself with a password. I could not see a way to do this, and some Google searches (e.g. "Ubuntu login screen remember username") did not turn up anything that looked applicable, other than this similar request: http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread47878.html
-------- version info --------
Release: Ubuntu 8.04.1, AMD64.
Thank you for your bug report, could you send the request on bugzilla.gnome.org where the people writting the software will read it? it's not likely the ubuntu team will change it in a distribution specific way
