This bug really is not fixed for Xubuntu. Due to numerous issues with
configuration files for lightdm, there is no standard at this time. bug
#799754 has not been resolved and Xubuntu live session will not auto-
login as of 2011-08-03.2 desktop images.

Bug description:
  I'm testing the Oneiric Alpha3 release candidate (20110801-i386) and
  find that the live CD always boots to the login screen displaying
  either Guest or other. The user must select other, then type ubuntu,
  press enter, then leave password blank and press enter again.

  I was unsure as whether to file this against lightdm or casper so I
  guessed :^)

  BTW this behavior is consistent whether I boot from the hidden boot
  menu selecting Try Ubuntu or if I let the boot menu pass and just
  select Try Ubuntu from the standard menu.

  Minor issue to be sure but I know from experience that some users will
  not be aware how to boot the live desktop.
