similar to: [Bug 86109] New: kernel oops after lightdm startup

Hi all, I've removed two legacy features from LightDM: 1. lightdm-set-defaults This tool was created so that scripts could easily modify the LightDM configuration, in particular so packages could modify it on installation / removal. This is not required since LightDM 1.8 as you can now create a snippet of configuration in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d or /usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d.

Does LightDM support multiseat setups? For example, I have a PC with multiple graphics cards, monitors, keyboards - used by multiple users concurrently. Will LightDM let me use one PC by many users concurrently (i.e. login screen on every monitor, allowing to start different sessions for different users). -- Tomasz Chmielewski http://wpkg.org

In light (pun not intended) of the announcement here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MirSpec what does this mean for LightDM being a viable free desktop display manager. The diagram shows the system compositor as being launched by LightDM in much the same way X is, and the plan looks very much like what we would do for Wayland. Is MIR going to be a hard dependency? Is Wayland support going to be dropped

With the retirement of Ubuntu 10.04 LightDM 1.0 is now no longer supported. I am currently supporting each LightDM release for as long as it is supported in an Ubuntu release [1]. If anyone wants to extend support for releases beyond this please let me know and I'm happy to pass maintenance of that branch to appropriate individuals. You can see the support status of each branch here:

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

Hi everyone, I propose to include the possibility to show a message of the day or a legal notice on the GUI before login. Kind regards, -- Michael Luthardt

I want to say abut what I see. The Display manager should be desktop DE and WM independent also the same goes for linux distro. as you surly agree, for instance Openbox is fully appropriated among linux users and at this moment there is growing interest in matter of tilling Windows managers. So if lightdm wants to become the replacement of GDM , it is surly agreeable to add support for such. I

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, I'm currently testing the XDMCP functionality of LightDM which seems to work flawless, however, there is one issue which I cannot resolve: The machine I am using for my setup is a dedicated machine running some VM's, these VM's don't have any graphics card associated and run headless and the only form of command is via a web interface or SSH. LightDM seems to use the

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
