Re: Autologin
You don't really need a login manager, you could just put the following in /etc/rc.local
su - username -c 'source /etc/profile;startx'Offline

Re: Autologin
if you use the above trick, it creates a new .serverauth file each time, so I recomend putting the following in /etc/rc.local.shutdown
rm /home/username/.serverauth*Offline
