if you are using KDE you can modify the setting to autologin in the Control Center--> system administration--> Convenience.

If it is Gnome go to the command prompt and type gdmsetup then click on the security tab.

You have to be root for both instances.

Using FC6 and KDE, and the above hint, I wasn't able to do this. However using Login Manager I was.

Check http://www.bellevuelinux.org/automatic_login.html and the "Automatic Login With the KDE Desktop" paragraph near the bottom of the page.

HTH.
