It is a similar situation as in lxdm <https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=766762> , for which I submitted SR#133138 to X11:lxde
Maybe someone should do it for lightdm as well
I suppose I could but I wonder why e.g. gdm is not doing that?
It could be that one of the packages tied to gdm is taking care of this sysconfig.displaymanager fillup portion.
I could be wrong, but I don't think any package maintained by the GNOME team does this, so that would be something else, I guess.
It seems registering the DM in /usr/lib/X11/displaymanagers is enough.
No, see my other mail. Installation is a different matter since the preferred DM is hardcoded in YaST's installer control files based on the selected desktop environment.
But that should not be the case, as I tend to choose minimal patterns (for text and X11) and then do my package selection as it fits my needs. Installer should not tie me to KDM/GDM/XDM/WhateverDM So probably fixing the installer control files is the way to fix the problem at its heart Togan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
