Thanks to varadarajan narayanan for making me notice that my first reply has 
gone nowhere & not complete :D

Actually I have used 3 files to do the autologin without display manager, but 
I still use desktop environment:

- /etc/inittab and .bash_profile like varadarajan stated

- also .xinitrc which I said earlier. It contains:

/usr/bin/qiv -zr /usr/share/dir/images/
sudo /usr/bin/app &
wait
startlxde

This script, as you all know, run qiv to display wallpaper randomly, app to 
generate something, and start the LXDE.

Ok. In case anybody was wondering why i replied with .xinitrc right away :)
