You can do this in the Xstartup script, which is run as root after the user has logged in and before the Xsession script is run. These scripts are in /etc/X11/xdm on a Debian system. You can simply put a line "killall xconsole" in Xstartup, but that could lead to undesired behaviour if different users log in using X at the same time. If that never happens on your computer, it's safe. BTW, all scripts with names that end in "_0" are used for display :0 (the default local display), the other scripts are used for all displays (they are used for all other displays, but the scripts for :0 source them, except for the Xsetup_0 script). You can specify which scripts are used for which displays in /etc/X11/xdm/xdm-config. See "man xdm" for more details.
