similar to: Centos 7.5..and My GDM Greeter/GDM Don't Work Anymore

All, So here's the issue: The system - a Dell Precision M4800 The OS - CentOS 6.9, ver. 2.6.32-696.28.1 The problem - Whenever the user tries to make system changes (display, mouse orientation, etc.), the gnome-settings-daemon pops up and says it can't run, and the changes never occur. I've looked into the /var/log/messages, and have seen some weirdness from dbus-daemon such as:

Looks like a series of vulnerability alerts for Oracle MySQL have been issued: CVE-2018-2562, CVE-2018-2647 (both high), CVE-2018-2645, CVE-2018-2646, CVE-2018-2665 (all three medium). This affects versions 5.7.20 and prior. I know CentOS/RedHat usually do backports--anybody know if this is the case, or do we have to go 'outside' now, and get the MySQL repository to use, for the

Hello! Does anyone have any experience with installing CentOS 6 (specfically, 6.8), on a Dell T7910? I've tried at least a dozen installs, everything gets configured, and when I have the system reboot, I get 'No boot device found press any key to reboot the machine'. In BIOS, I've enabled AHCI, Legacy boot and modes, and enabled the SAS controller. The disks are seen and

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

Hello, I need the possibility to login to other machines on my network. With kdm it works by choosing "Remote Login" from a menu in the greeter. I would prefer not to use kdm. ;-) I saw that the option "greeter-show-remote-login" should do that for lightdm. I work with a debian "wheezy/testing" system and installed the following packages from the

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.

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)."

Ctrl-Alt-F7 automatically starts with a gdm greeter. I would like Ctrl-Alt-F8 to be the same, but I cannot figure it out. Would you offer some tips? The purpose is to allow others to simply switch over and log into a machine without bothering the current X session and/or leaving me logged in the F8 so X is running and waiting for me. -- Sincerely, John Thomas

Many times when i boot my Xen machine i get a message saying something like "The greeter application has failed many times, using alternative greeter." From there on I can do everything OK as far as i can see. Sometimes when i boot the machine, it just randomly restarts halfway through the boot process. It has also been crashing alot lately when i try to run it 24/7. Any ideas? here

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

Memdisk 2.08 cannot boot an XP boot floppy image (XP appears to use WinME boot files for its bootable floppy). For example: http://members.iinet.net.au/~bdriver/bootdisk/download.htm This disk will not boot with Memdisk (Memdisk starts to load the image and then hangs).

In CentOS5 you were able to create a server section in /etc/gdm/custom.conf such as [server-Standard] name=Standard server command=/usr/bin/Xorg -br -audit 4 -s 15 chooser=false handled=true flexible=true priority=0 After this change, Xorg would run with the -br -audit 4 -s 15 options. Unfortunately in CentOS6 this is not the case. It completely ignores anything put into custom.conf as far

Hello, I built the entire Vorbis kit on my PowerMac G4 running OSX 10.4.6. I'm having problems however doing anything with the libao package.
