[2011-09-29 15:07]: I did a fresh install of factory with XFCE (as I don't like Gnome3...) with autologin enabled. To my greatest surprise, I was logged in to Gnome3. Is it intended or worth a bugreport? Also: is it really necessary to install an almost complete Gnome3 environment when installing XFCE?
It is currently in a state of flux, we're moving from gdm3 to lightdm as the default login manager for Xfce, the changes in patterns and YaST have not made it into Factory yet. If you want to test you can manually install lightdm and set DISPLAYMANAGER to lightdm in /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager. gdm3 currently drags in a complete GNOME 3 session via dependencies so that will be gone as well after the switch is complete.
I would like to test it, too, because I have one 12.1 beta 1 installation with the xfce de. I did what you said above and installed lightwm and changed /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager accordingly.
Now, where lightwm is in use, can I delete gdm?
Yes.
The change to patterns (affecting new installations) will also make it into Factory soon, unfortunately after the beta.
OK. I have it running and have no obvius problems so far except for this one doing a zypper dup from factory: "Installation von xfce-utils-doc-4.8.3-1.1 fehlgeschlagen: (mit --nodeps --force) Fehler: Subprocess failed. Error: RPM fehlgeschlagen: error: unpacking of achive failed on file /usr/share/doc/packages/xfce-utils/html/C/images/xfce-mouse.pn;4e8b650e: cpio: link failed - File exists error: xfce-utils-doc-4.8.3-1.1.noarch: install failed error: xfce-utils-doc-4.8.1-3.6.1.noarch: erase skipped" Should I file a bug report about this? I still have a few questions concerning the patterns you mentioned above. Are the patterns in factory right now? Do they take care of the unneeded/obsolete gnome components and remove them or do I have to delete them manually? And if so, which packages are these?
