Go to Synaptic package manager. Right click on the Sparky Aptus icon and do it.

Then do Reload.

Then install

Lightdm-manager

package.

Then start it from

Run

option in the menu

and select autostart option.

There you go.

You might try following:

in terminal type

Code Select
sudo mousepad /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf

and uncomment these lines

Code Select
[SeatDefaults]
auotlogin-user=<YOUR USER>
autologin-user-timeout=0


save the file and reboot your machine
