It worked for me fine but, since rungetty doesn't set the USER variable,
HOME variable etc, bash, when run as "bash -l" will fail to rad ~/.profile
~/.bashrc, etc...
There must be a way to have rungetty to set this variables or some app
which logins into some user without prompting for pass :-/

hmm... "How can I auto-login as a _user_ (still, not as root, since i wouldn't
like any ap to corupt my system) in the Command Lie Interface? (the idea
is not to use X)" <- so, no X ;-)

Thanks a lot. In fact, I had already tried this, but the problem is that
setuid doesn't set the environment. if there was some way to run 'su'
instead of 'setuid' but without asking for pass

Hi,
I'm working on my computer to do a Linux MediaCenter (to play videos, DVS,
music, maybe games, and such). Since this computer will not have internet
nor LAN access, i'd like it to auto-login, so that by insterting a CD and
booting up, everything is done and not a single key has to be pressed.
