[Artix] Proper way to setup auto login on tty1

[omnigenous]

Currently I have to edit /etc/dinit.d/tty1 file to enable auto login

/etc/dinit.d/tty1:

...
command = /usr/lib/dinit/agetty-default --autologin <USER> tty1
...

The only problem is after upgrading this files resets. Is there a other way to enable auto login that won't reset?

Since this is probably an Artix-specific issue (looking from the dir it points to), I'm going to step in.

You can copy /etc/dinit.d/config/agetty-default (if you are using Artix) to /etc/dinit.d/config/agetty-tty1.conf, after that, you can edit the newly-copied file and add "--autologin <USER>" to the GETTY_ARGS= var, it'll be automatically read at the next boot.

Thank you! Little typo, I think you meant /etc/dinit.d/config/agetty-default.conf instead of /etc/dinit.d/config/agetty-default
