I'd like to increase the time a session lasts before it is locked. I'm using two Gateway Lucid computers and it is very inconvenient to keep unlocking myself.

I'm guessing that it's the default screensaver time that's causing the trouble for you.

System --> Preferences --> Screensaver
From there you can either increase the time at which the screensaver is activated, or just uncheck the "Lock screen when screensaver is active" checkbox.

This has been annoying for me as well, it's easy to fix though :)

Thanks, I never thought to look at "Screensaver." I've searched every where with various combinations of "Time, session, user, and timeout.":mad:
