Source: autox Section: x11 Priority: optional Maintainer: Andres Salomon Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 4.1.0), cdbs Standards-Version: 3.8.0 Package: autox Architecture: all Depends: xinit, psmisc, kbd | console-tools, bash Provides: x-display-manager Description: Automatically start X on boot This package contains a daemon that starts X upon boot on behalf of a user. It is designed to replace X display managers (such as xdm or gdm) on systems that only have a single user (ie, laptops/netbooks/embedded devices) and therefore don't require the additional functionality provided by xdm/gdm/etc. The traditional method for this sort of thing is to run 'su -c startx' from an /etc/inittab; autox is package-management-friendly. It was written to be as fast and small as possible, saving precious ram during runtime and keeping boot time fast by not loading large toolkit libraries.
