Try setting "automatic login" through the gnome-control panel (gdmsetup):
System -> Administration -> Login Window -> "Security" tab -> "Enable
Automatic Login"
Right now i'm sitting in front of an ubuntu-box, running gnome 2.14.2,
but this way you could check into which file and under which directive
the settings are written. Funny enough, my auto-login settings are in
the [daemon] section of the conf.
