autologin ?
Dear lxde community,
How can I tweak it to autologin to the lxde ? FYI I'm using the desktop manager slim. I appreciate your support.
cheers.

Re: autologin ?
hi
edit with root powers /etc/slim.conf and change the name of the guilty to yourname
# default user, leave blank or remove this line
# for avoid pre-loading the username.
default_user gordy
# Focus the password field on start when default_user is set
# Set to "yes" to enable this feature
focus_password yes
# Automatically login the default user (without entering
# the password. Set to "yes" to enable this feature
auto_login yes

Re: autologin ?
I just tried it. All it did was auto-populate the default user in the login window. I pressed [Enter] and was prompted for my password.
Here are the changes I made. I had to do some cut-and-paste from your example above. I have hilited the line that I edited and the section I added.

Is it odd that "focus_password" and "auto_login"sections were missing from the default slim.conf?# default user, leave blank or remove this line
# for avoid pre-loading the username.
default_user lars
# Focus the password field on start when default_user is set
# Set to "yes" to enable this feature
focus_password yes
# Automatically login the default user (without entering

auto_login yes
Re: autologin ?
err sorry but you did reboot didn't you?
2) use root powers before rebooting and empty..../var/log/slim.log ....then reboot....if autologin fails
then pls post the contents of that log in a codebox
