Can't get it to boot straight to Desktop

Fri Oct 19, 2012 8:49 pm

Hey all,

When I turn my Rpi on, it goes to the login screen.

I looked around, did some research..I went to the terminal and typed

Code: Select all

sudo raspi-config
I configured it so it would boot straight to desktop, but it doesn't it still asks me to login.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

I think easiest way is to use raspi-config.

sudo raspi-config
