Personally, as only user of my laptop I am autologging by appending the following to /etc/gettytab (pacija is the username of autologged user): # Autologin by pacija pacija:\ :ht:np:sp#115200:al=3Dpacija: Next, I am modifying line in /etc/ttys: #ttyv1 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" xterm on secure ttyv1 "/usr/libexec/getty pacija" xterm on secure And finally, appending the following to .tcshrc (assuming my default shell is tcsh, and copying .cshrc to .tcshrc if it does not exist): if ($tty =3D=3D ttyv1) then startxfce4 --with-ck-launch logout endif Very happy with Xfce here, haven't look back at gnome for 4 years. --=20 Marko Cupa=C4=87
