Bug Description
I am trying to figure out how to login to ubuntu without login in. When I restart the machine, I simply want ubuntu to come up in normal user mode, nothing more and nothing less. The documentation does not provide any help for this. If I could have an automatic login for root, that would be preferrable. I want my machine self sustaining and have no desire to set up logins and maintain or remember passwords.

I appreciate your situation but given our target audience for system documentation I think this is inadvisable for inclusion.
It is relatively straight forward: System- >Administration ->Login Window, Security Tab, Select "Enable Automatic Login" and choose your user name. Hope this helps.
