Ubuntu Stupid Passwords Policy and other ANNOYING SHIT

This post is useful for people TIRED to write the same DAMN PASSWORD into their ubuntu box. At next Gnome restart, it will ask for the fucking password. Just press "Enter" and use the UNSAFE STORAGE. holy shit!

Automatic login

System - Administration - Login and select the damn user

IDIOT keyring password

delete the folder $home/.gnome2/keyrings which holds the keyring info. once you do that it wont ask again.

Stupid passwords for everything

Disable the damn Gnome Keyring Manager Password

Applications - Accessories - Passwords and encryption keys

All other passwords

First,

apt-get install libpam-gnome-keyring

(maybe it's not required on latest ubuntu releases)

Create a file named

/etc/pam.d/common-pamkeyring

containing:

auth optional pam_keyring.so try_first_pass
session optional pam_keyring.so

edit

/etc/pam.d/gdm

adding this line at the bottom of the file:

@include common-pamkeyring

and please COMMENT OUT those lines:

# auth optional pam_gnome_keyring.so
# session optional pam_gnome_keyring.so auto_start

Create, if doesn't exist, the "wheel" group, editing /etc/group, and add your user to it

vi /etc/group

add this in

/etc/sudoers

using "visudo":

yourusername ALL = NOPASSWD: ALL

add those things in

/etc/pam.d/sudo

auth sufficient pam_rootok.so
auth required pam_wheel.so
auth sufficient pam_wheel.so trust

enable this in your

/etc/pam.d/su

# Uncomment this if you want wheel members to be able to
# su without a password.
auth sufficient pam_wheel.so trust

The Incredible Idiocy: PolicyKit

As stated in the man page, just edit

/etc/PolicyKit/PolicyKit.conf

as here:

<config version="0.1">
        <match user="root|YOUR_USER_HERE">
               <return result="yes"/>
        </match>
        <define_admin_auth group="admin|wheel"/>
</config>

restart the whole X damn thing

AND LIVE IN HAPPINESS

Other stupid things in Ubuntu

Close this terminal?

Terminal asking "Close this terminal? There is still a process running in this terminal. Closing the terminal will kill it". This is STUPID, STUPID, STUPID..

Launch gconf-editor -> Apps -> gnome-terminal -> global -> untick confirm_window_close

60 seconds delay on shutdown

Another STUPID thing.

Launch gconf-editor

Go to apps> indicator-session and check the box next to suppress_logout_restart_shutdown. Or if you wish to do it entirely from terminal:

gconftool-2 -s '/apps/indicator-session/suppress_logout_restart_shutdown' --type bool true

openssh-server not installed by default

This is simply STUPID, STUPID, STUPID. apt-get install openssh-server.

Sticky Windows at edges

The most annoying thing in the entire world.

Logout - Are you sure you want to logout?

YES GODDAMN, I'M FUCKING SURE, HOLY SHIT SHUT THE FUCK UP AND LOG THE FUCK OUT!

USEFUL not installed programs

gimp

SHIT to be removed

f-spot
