How to get rid of the password box[SOLVED]

Hello,

When I reactivate the computer after sleep, the password box always comes up asking for password. Very annoying. Is there a way, to eliminate this password box? Must be, because there are other distros that dont have this. In ubuntu, I just move the mouse and the desktop is back, no password asked.
My desktop is gnome.

Thanks,
jmak

To turn off the screen lock:

gconf-editor

in a terminal. Then go apps > gnome-screensaver and untick the lock_enabled box.

Look for "lock on suspend/resume" in some gnomish power settings.
