Just add to /etc/X11/xenodm/xenodm-config DisplayManager.*.autoLogin: your_user_name enable xenodm in /etc/rc.conf.local with xenodm_flags= and add the startup command for your window manager to ~/.xsession If I remember correctly, it's something like xfce4-session || startkde || gnome-session || xterm to start those DEs. Other window managers are more straightforward and usually use their name as the main executable.
