look, my problem is as follows :

Since 2 Years ive migrated my whole family to Ubuntu from Windows.. but since a year, after every update ive got to go home to home to tell them its going to be not so easy they think off...its getting complicated everywhere... my father, my mother, my uncle for example, they are all angry because to tick in all 2 clicks a password... and i think the "user friendly" system is going to be safer as ford nox...but not more any user friendlyness

And after 10 years of linux, ive thougt about (last week) to step back to Windows...because when i use linux, the Pc isnt any more my pc... i get restricted everywhere, and this really sucks me... and older people like my father etc. dont have the patience to search in the internet to make it more like he want it...

BACK TO TOPIC

Can someone tell me how to kick the "user list" and only giving names and password ?

It doesnt work in gconf-editor....when i deactivate "show users" the useres are still there ;)

i want to kick in the username by typing it directly, not clicking on sth., the look isnt any interest of me,
but i want to kick my name by my self in !

Fedora has got an idea, but it isnt working ( Expecting false or true, error while interpretin)

gconftool-2 --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults \\ --direct --type bool --set /apps/gdm/simple-greeter/disable_user_list true
