Were I to set up a machine at home to autologin, I would not want it

to auto-login as."
IOW no choice has to be made each time you actually power-up the machine.
How
Squeeze with Gnome2?
Jessie with Mate?
The user name would be myexperiments. It would have minimal set of
privileges.
I don't know. I don't really understand your original question. It
said "How to do an autologin? In a DE independent way?" [snip]
I have 2 machines.
One is Squeeze with Gnome2 DE.
One is Jessie with Mate DE.
Desired user name to be "myexperiments" having a minimal set
[TBD] privileges.
Power on yields operating system.
