I made this patch that, with a simple hack, adds the auto-login feature to slim (with both pam enabled and disabled). I also created an ebuild to let the user chose weather apply the patch or not. Please test :) Reproducible: Always

Nicola, send the patch to the authors, please.
yep I will! but I don't know how to behave, is there an explicit netiquette for this? should I write them an e-mail or post the patch on berlios, in the patch section of the project?

When they have not a tracker they usually tell in their README or homepage where to report bugs and send patches (a mailing list or author's email).
Closing. I hope you've been lucky with slim's upstream ;-)
Yep! :) they adapted it :) thanks
