If you're not admin try something like `read f' when you want to leave

There might also be 3rd party software that is doing the logout.

1. How to disable 'auto-logout' ?
Hi,
I'd like to know how to disable the 'auto-logout' feature. I've looked
around a bit, but haven't been able to figure out where exactly this is
initialized. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
thanks,
Omar
