I am running Kubuntu 20.04 and I don't want to have to use a user password. I am the only user. How can I avoid having to write my user password each time I wake my laptop from sleep?

I tried many commands on sudo and it still doesn't work!!

Get to system settings> Workspace Behaviour (under Workspace)> Screen Locking> uncheck 'Lockscreen: After waking from sleep' You can also adjust time of inactivity after which screen to lock. If you don't your screen not locked at all uncheck Lockscreen: Automatically after.

  • Doing it via screen locking doesn't help if you're logging out and logging in again.

Go to system > administration > login(or similar location and may from Ubuntu version ) and select your username and check to login automatically.

If you also don't want to lock it for inactivity, uncheck lock screen when screensaver is active

You can run the command sudo visudo Find the line with your username, and change it to the following:

$yourname ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
