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'

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*
