Hi!

All you have to do is follow instructions from README that comes from
any of the above distros.

Here is a relevant excerpt.


When you start it for the first time, click on ``Options'' button, fill up
all entries correctly and click on ``Save'' button. From then on, you will
logon automatically to the running server on every mysqlgui startup.

Take care to put the right value in ``Ask for password'' button. Also, if
you have problems with location of socket files on *nix, enter a full path
of the socket file in the ``SQL command on the start-up''. This input field
is used on Windoze if you wish to specify that named pipe option.


Regards,

Sinisa
