Just to check, your daemon.conf should look something like:

Code: Select all

[daemon]
TimedLoginEnable=false
TimedLogin=yourusername
TimedLoginDelay=30
AutomaticLoginEnable=true
AutomaticLogin=yourusername
[security]
[xdmcp]
[greeter]
[chooser]
[debug]

Doesn't matter what is on the 2nd and 3rd line in the [daemon] section, as long as the 1st, 4th and 5th line match. The 5th line should have your login name.
