I'm trying to set-up a barebones installation of lenny that boots straight into a saved xfce session, with no login prompt. Also I'd rater not install gdm (which pulls in a bunch of dependecies) or xdm.

Any suggestion?

OR

If you are using kdm then I believe you should be able to setup automatic login in the kde control center.

Nope, not running kde or any fancy GUI stuff. I'd like a mostly command-line system, whit the bare minimum to run a custom GUI program. – agnul Jul 27 '09 at 10:11
