Is there some xubuntu way to set up autologin?

I went by the autologin setup on installation and now I want to enable it, but I'm struggling.

Dpkg-reconfigure doesn't do it.

What does?

More details:

I set up /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf.d/10_autologin.conf:

[Seat:*]
autologin-user=crat
autologin-user-timeout=0
user-session=xubuntu

No joy. I also tried adding those lines to lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf; it's as if the config files are being ignored. Nothing like dpkg-reconfigure user-setup or dpkg-reconfigure lightdm brings up any sort of dialog that allows autologin.

I remember seeing it on install, so I know it's in there somewhere......
