Thank you, George for the furnished details. Enable root login in your system: http://manishtech.wordpress.com/2007/07/21/enabling-root-login-in-ubuntu/ for details. Then, login as root and then do the task for automatic login. [As root user the Administration menu and its submenus will be definitely visible]. And in the same process, enable sudo privileges for "George" so that you don't mishandle your root account by mistake.[This procedure is clearly given in your system help]. At any cost, DO NOT USE ROOT ACCOUNT FOR DAILY TASKS ELSE THE VERY IDEA OF SECURITY IN YOUR LINUX SYSTEM IS DEFEATED. Regards, Sriram.
