I need help, I am very new to Ubuntu and am running 14.04 LTS. the problem was that my password login screen would prompt me twice for my password, I could not find a solution so I decided to remove my password login completely. I found a web page telling me how to remove it and I succeeded in doing so, but now it prompts me twice for my keyring password.. I have looked for a solution to this but no luck, I have decided just to go back to having my normal password on the login screen and wait for a solution to the double login problem, but apparently I did not bookmark the site I used to remove it and I cannot remember how to undo it..

Any Suggestions?

output of cat /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf in terminal is [SeatDefaults] autologin-user=

To get autologin working run in terminal:

sudo gedit /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf

And in the line

autologin-user=

add your user name.

To disable keyring password you can use THIS GUIDE

But it is a security issue

Try using passwd [new passwd] from your account? This will create a password. If that does not work, then sudo passwd -u [new password] [username] definately should.
