Get rid of username/password?

On the main menu, there is something like "startup" in the "preferences" submenu, use that for autostarting LinuxCNC.
Desktop entries will not autostart.

I've been wanting this to, so thanks for the input!....but.... how do you guys handle the shutting down process? Currently i'm quiting LinuxCNC with ctrl+q, going to Application-->Logoff in Debian and clicks Shutdown....waits untill the screen turns off and then flicking the main-switch on the machine.... is there a better way?

I don't know if it's correct but I directly turn off the main power switch and everything goes off.

hehe! That is one way to do it! But I don't think Linux likes getting the power cut like that? Or is that assumption wrong?

So far it hasn’t complained yet. :side:
Old HDD drives don’t like having their power cut off like that, but modern SSDs don’t really care.
