hi

What kind user authentication uses Squeeze and what kind uses Wheezy to login to XFCE Desktop?
I'd like to know exact differences.

The only difference that you will see is Squeeze is using gdm3 and Wheezy, at least with Xfce, is using Lightdm.

Using tty login is the same as far as I can tell.

There is no difference in the Squeeze and Wheeezy /etc/pam.d/login files except for something about motd which I don't use so don't think about. That is at about line 87 and 88.
