ubuntu automatic logoff



 
i kept notes after the last time i had to deal with dialup speeds on 
my laptop at my mother's. 

one of the problems i hadn't solved was that the desktop in Cambridge 
logs me off automatically after 5 minutes.  This means that if i log 
on and check my email, and then want to websurf for a bit, I can't get 
the email that's come while i was surfing without logging in again. 

Does anyone know how to turn this off? 

As i remember it, I pretended google was my friend last time, and it 
did toell me something, but i didn't really test it, and it doesnt' 
seem to have been true.

I thought hell is bound to be a livelier place, as he joins forever 
those whom he served in life, applauding their prejudices and fanning 
their hatred.
