Re: auto login

Xfce doesn't come with a login (display) manager. If you're using Xubuntu 14.04, you've probably got lightdm installed. Since this really isn't an Xfce issue, you'd probably be better served asking over at the UbuntuForums.

Re: auto login

ToZ is right, but if it's lightdm you have, then see our Manual for how we do it:

Re: auto login

yes it is lightdm, I figured it out, thanks. The reason I asked here is it works when not ask for password is checked in users for ubuntu but doesn't work without a tweak to lightdm.conf in xubuntu
