Well, I'm triyng Linux Mint 8 Fluxbox (based on Xubuntu 9.10?) and Linux Mint 9 Fluxbox (based on Lubuntu 10.04?) in VirtualBox with both autologin* and the old version boots faster up. Linux Mint 9 takes less time to receive the image background, but it hangs a lot before fluxbox menu becomes active... this is not good.
*for Linux Mint 8 there's the "Slim Autologin" in Menu, for Linux Mint 9 it is a bit complicated:
edit /etc/lxdm/default.conf... and uncomment (delete the # and the space) the lines
Code: Select all
autologin=*username*
session=/usr/bin/startmintfluxbox
