The VNC server just listens to the appropriate TCP/IP port and then runs Xvnc which does the actual VNC communication. Ideally I'd be able to do the same thing for RDP then the daemon doesn't get any more complicated, and a bug in the RDP layer can't crash the server. I don't know enough about how NX works but I suspect we could do the same thing as for VNC and RDP. I'm

I came across a race condition in lightdm greeter setup phase before the login screen is displayed (at boot time or after logout). I reported this also on Launchpad with more details (https://bugs.launchpad.net/lightdm/+bug/1172752), but to work on a proper fix, ideas on how to fix this would be welcome. During greeter setup "lightdm --session-child" is spawned twice. The first call to

Hi all, I'm setting up an LXC container for Ubuntu 13.10 where the X server is started in the host on vt6. The unix socket and authority file are then mounted in the LXC container. I can start X sessions and applications from the container but I can't get LightDM to use this server. I would really like to have the container's LightDM/Ubuntu greeter to automatically start on this

Or how to avoid the whirlwind. Greetings everyone. I observe the coding of lighdm is well under way and I'm thinking the pressure to meet the releases of 11.11 is probably going to build without bounds. Is there time now to consider the inclusion of some of the more offbeat use cases? 1: Headless(no monitor, keyboard, or monitor) 2: True headless(no video card) but Xvfb. 3: No X but only

Hello, in the assumption that I understand them correctly I specified in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf autologin-user=xxxx autologin-user-timeout=10 so that after 10 seconds the user xxxx is logged-in automatically. What happens is that the user xxxx is logged-in immediately i.e. without any delay. Do I understand the second variable wrong or am I missing something? Thanks for any help. K.D.J.

Hi, I discovered when using my fuse fs for connecting to a remote host using sftp that the new server version 7.4 sends a greeter which is not according the format desribed in https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4253#section-4 There is written that the greeter "MUST be terminated by a single Carriage Return (CR) and a single Line Feed (LF) character (ASCII 13 and 10, respectively)." Now

I'm the founder and lead developer of the lightweight Linux distro Swift Linux. I'm currently in the process of switching from the old antiX Linux base to the new Linux Mint Debian Edition base. The new Swift Linux will be using LightDM instead of SLiM. I've found that replacing LMDE's default GDM display manager with SLiM disables many functions (like audio). Restoring these

I've been using lightdm for about a year now and with all the versions I've tried, Gentoo prints a message about lightdm and xdm failing to stop if I reboot from the lightdm menu or the xfce4 menu. If I issue 'reboot' as root from an xterm within xfce4, lightdm stops fine. I couldn't find anything in the logs, but in which one of syslog-ng's logs should I look? I'm

Hi, I made the switch from KDE4->XFCE, and because gdm takes more time than xfce to start I would like to replace it with lightdm. I installed lightdm, set it as default display manager and configured the gtk greeter. However, when I start I only get a black screen (x running) and nothing else happens. When I start it as root with the --test-mode argument, I get the following message: lightdm

With dual monitors, how do I control which monitor will get the greeter display. I would really like to configure the screens as mirrored. Trying to log in when the monitor with the greeter is not visible is very trying. -- Bob Nichols "NOSPAM" is really part of my email address. Do NOT delete it.

Does *anyone* have a clue where gdm-simple-greeter stores the usernames it presents? I know that it is not getting it out of /etc/passwd. based on users who can log in, since I have several machines where one user, who's rolled off, is still showing, even though /etc/passwd has him as having a shell that doesn't exist. mark

Hi, I have saw many tutorials to ingress Ubuntu 14 in the Samba4 domain, but none worked properly. I put the Ubuntu workstation in the Domain, but when I try to login, appear the following messenge: "your password will be expire in 42 days " and does not permit the authentication. How can I configure correctly Ubuntu 14 workstation to authenticate in the Samba 4 domain? Thanks

Hi! On v4.18-rc1, the mouse cursor is missing on my right monitor. Card is G98 [GeForce 8400 GS Rev. 2]. I have two monitors: one small landscape 1280x1024 on DVI-I-1 left, and one big 1600x1200 (1200x1600 portrait) on HDMI-1 right. Curiously, the cursor is missing not only with proper xrandr setup after logging in but even in mirrored mode at the lightdm greeter[1]. How is this even possible
