When implementing a kiosk, in some cases you may do want a window manager. Then, all you have to do is to select the runlevel 5 on the Configuration section and add an autostart program on user tux. That will overwrite the .xinitrc file on user tux.

If you want that autostart program to happen on all users, copy the generated /home/tux/.xinitrc to the /etc/skeleton/.xinitrc file.
