Enable auto login into SLIM

One of the things that annoyed me was having to enter my login and password at every boot. I use SLIM. Fortunately SLIM is very easy to setup to autologin a specific user.

Here’s how… :

To make SLiM automatically login as a specified user (without having to type a password) the following lines in /etc/slim.conf should be changed.

# default_user        simone

Uncomment this line, and change “simone” to the user to be logged into automatically.

# auto_login          no

Uncomment this line and change the ‘no’ to ‘yes’. This enables the auto login feature.

Good luck!
