I don't think it is much of an improvement configuring display manager behavior through /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager while having to select the actual display manager through some other mechanism like update-alternatives.

The question is if those settings in /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager are still really affecting the how the display manager works. I know that GDM and KDM a lot of their settings are no longer controlled by YaST, but through their respective configuration managers. (e.g. Most of the KDM settings are now controlled by the KDE systemsettings)

So this would be a good opportunity to really look how and where we want to configure our display managers and have a final cleanup of these settings.

LightDM reads DISPLAYMANAGER_AUTOLOGIN, DISPLAYMANAGER_PASSWORD_LESS_LOGIN, DISPLAYMANAGER_REMOTE_ACCESS, DISPLAYMANAGER_XSERVER_TCP_PORT_6000_OPEN, DEFAULT_WM. GDM reads DISPLAYMANAGER_AUTOLOGIN, DISPLAYMANAGER_XSERVER_TCP_PORT_6000_OPEN, and DISPLAYMANAGER_AUTOLOGIN. LXDM reads DISPLAYMANAGER_AUTOLOGIN and DEFAULT_WM. With the rest I'm not familiar.

The same information for KDM can be found in the comments of this bug report (credits to Wolfgang Bauer) https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=907907 Cheers. -- Ancor González Sosa YaST Team at SUSE Linux GmbH -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: yast-devel+owner@opensuse.org
