But I cannot get either of those features to work on<br>
my Linux Mint 18.3 KDE laptop. Why? And how can I<br>

At the following link, I have combined three screen-shots<br>

What do I need to do to enable an autologin so the system<br>
does not require entering a password every time I open<br>
the laptop?<br>

And what do I need to do to get different wallpapers<br>
on each different virtual desktop to work like it does<br>
