slimlock
maybe it's good to add info about slimlock

x11-misc/slimlock has been removed from the Portage tree on March 10th, 2014. I added a note in the article saying that you can still install the slimlock command if you build slim with the pam USE flag.

Console-kit
I have had many problems getting slim to run awesome (via .xinitrc) and finally got it working after figuring that I needed to add consolekit to the default init.d. Maybe that needs to be added to the guide? (all it did before was to give me X with no wm)

non-awesome .xinitrc
there should be a section for .xinitrc users of startx & notes to comment / uncomment these.

login_cmd          exec /bin/bash -login ~/.xinitrc %session
 * 1) login_cmd           exec /bin/sh - ~/.xinitrc %session
 * 1) login_cmd           exec /bin/bash -login /usr/share/slim/Xsession %session

ill throw in a systemd start service... to this systemctl enable slim.service
