Autologin for Raspberry pi

You will no longer have to keep Logging in with Startx, or user and pass to get into ur LXDE after this one. Ideal for servers/car computers etc.

Log into your Pi, then type:

sudo nano /etc/inittab

Look for the line:

Quote
1:2345:respawn:/sbin/ getty 115200 tty1

Just add a "#" infront of it to disable it:

#1:2345:respawn:/sbin/ getty 115200 tty1

Add this line under it:

1:2345:respawn:/bin/login -f pi tty1</dev/tty1>/dev/tty1 2>&1

Hit CTRL + X and Y to save.

Type:

sudo nano ~/.bash_profile

Type:

startx

Hit CTRL + X and Y to save.

Now:

sudo reboot

It should now boot automatically.
