[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. -- Guido Berhoerster -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
