Automatic login at startup?

Would the automatic login feature be available on Slitaz 3.0?

Excellent.

I wrote the first line in the terminal and a new box came up with script, and searched for "auto_login" there, then changed the "no" to a "yes" and saved it (Ctrl-S).

Re: Automatic login at startup?

Have installed SliTaz 4.0, and followed the above instructions, but here in 4.0, under slim.conf (#leafpad /etc/slim.conf ), I do not find the lines

       # Auto login default user

       auto_login yes

as I did in 3.0.

Open terminal,su root

Type this:

[c]echo "auto_login        yes" >> /etc/slim.conf[/c]

Hit Enter key.

Re: Automatic login at startup?

Have installed SliTaz 4.0, too

This works only for bootíng / startup.

If you log out from your session ( right mousebutton - Logout - exit )

X closes down an starts again - Autologin doesn't work here.

How can I fix this ?

Some help needed.

You know, you'd complain if Windows did that.

The best fix? Just don't log out. If you have to then type in your user details and password like you normally would.

Re: Automatic login at startup?

What would be the interest if the session would open itself automatically just after you closed it?

If your problem is to type the password, create a default user without; you'll just have to hit [Enter] twice.

If you don't want to have the possibility to close the session, edit /usr/bin/tazbox:

suppress (don't comment) line #95 [c]"'gettext \"Close X session\"' : exit" \[/c]
