install mingetty (console only getty; getty opens a tty port, prompts for a login name and invokes the /bin/login command)

apt-get install mingetty

Debian

edit a line in /etc/inittab (good to make a backup copy before!) for a particular tty that you want to autologin to

1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty1
2:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty2
3:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty3
4:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty4
5:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty5
6:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty6

and put your user after –autologin flag. for example you log in automatically on tty1:

1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty --autologin [user] --noclear  tty1 

then edit the .profile file in your user's home directory, adding these lines

if [ -z "$DISPLAY" ] && [ $(tty) = /dev/tty1 ] ; then
    startx ;
fi

finally, make sure that .xinitrc contains the line which will start your window manager. for example:

awesome

more details here: http://www.shellperson.net/autostart-x-without-gdm/

Ubuntu

edit a line in /etc/init/tty1.conf to replace

exec /sbin/getty -8 38400 tty1

with

exec /sbin/mingetty --autologin [user] tty1

then edit your .bashrc (if the user is using bash shell) to add

startx

as the last line.
