Thanks, Scott and Robbie, I had just downloaded and reinstalled Alpha6 in the same partition about 2 hours ago and fully updated and uploaded, so I am unable to replicate my previous problem now. If it helps, Robbie, I am sure the sudo apt-get update and upgrade showed no packages to install or being held back. Scott, sorry I don't know anything about bootcharts to be able to comment. I did install ppa-chromium-daily though, and firefox 3.0 as well as 3.5 (when it was Shirotake); not sure if this affects anything.
My new installation at alpha6 has absolutely no problem, autologin or otherwise. Reinstalled firefox and chromium AFTER all updates done. I can only surmise that the previous problem was that I started at alpha2 and update/upgrade till alpha6. I am not sure why this is so, but my previous experience with alpha Jaunty updates/upgrades were also not too smooth. I update/upgrade with aptitude update and aptitude safe-upgrade. When I had this problem, I tried apt-get update/apt-get upgrade, and that is why I can answer Robbie's question with certainty. Thank you guys for your attention, wish you all the best and you did a great job in Karmic.
