This update has changed my login manager to "ssdm" with the Maldives theme from "kdm" which is what it has been set to for years, its also set my keyboard to US even though all my locale settings are still English-UK. Yast is still reporting kdm as the display manager and keyboard as UK.
Any ideas? I am going to shutdown and reboot to see if its just a freak situation.
It seems that /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager is no longer honoured and that you will need to make a symbolic link default-displaymanager in /etc/alternatives to /usr/lib/X11/displaymanagers/kdm.
This is how my system looks.... Any known reason for both of these links being needed?
ls -l /usr/lib/X11/displaymanagers/ | grep display lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 40 Oct 20 16:13 default-displaymanager -> /etc/alternatives/default-displaymanager
ls -l /etc/alternatives | grep display lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 Oct 24 15:25 default-displaymanager -> /usr/lib/X11/displaymanagers/sddm
That's how 'alternatives' work https://linux.die.net/man/8/update-alternatives
Thanks for the link. I think the choice of login manager should still be a config option in something like Yast/systemsettings5, seems like a backward step to go back to the cli to change things. -- opensuse:tumbleweed:20171022 Qt: 5.9.1 KDE Frameworks: 5.38.0 KDE Plasma: 5.11.0 kwin 5.11.0 kmail2 5.6.1 akonadiserver 5.6.1 Kernel: 4.13.8-1-default Nouveau: 1.0.15_1.2 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
