If you only want one X program running, and therefore do not need a window manager etc, then run startx from /etc/init.d/local |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
that script is run by root so you will want to use su to switch to the user you want to run as and then run startx, something like |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
su - username startx |
| 18 |
|

forget all that autologin with kdm bollocks, it is not needed if you have described your problem accurately (ie you want to run one program only) |
