When I discovered about x11/slim and I have lost interest to work more on LightDM as I have enough stuff on my plate. Keep in mind, it only will taking you to the log in screen but you can't enter the password at all. I haven't dig in it for why it doesn't work. I am a bit stupid on PAM stuff, so probably it has wrong configuration in the /usr/local/etc/pam.d/lightdm* or something else. The rc start up script is also incomplete, but it works. It will needs to have options for any users can do something like lightdm-greeters="lightdm-gtk-greeter" in /etc/rc.conf instead of have to edit the /usr/local/etc/lightdm.conf to allow use lightdm-gtk-greeter. There are a few of different greeters like KDE greeter, XFCE and etc. Here's two shar files: http://people.freebsd.org/~mezz/shar/lightdm.shar http://people.freebsd.org/~mezz/shar/lightdm-gtk-greeter.shar I have the user/group (/usr/ports/GIDs and /usr/ports//UIDs) look like this: ------------------------ # grep lightdm /etc/group lightdm:*:959: # grep lightdm /etc/passwd lightdm:*:959:959:LightDM Display Manager:/usr/local/etc/lightdm/home:/usr/sbin/nologin ------------------------ Oh yeah, I total forgot about that I have found a patch from somewhere mailing list to add 'X -novtswitch' support in the x11-servers/xorg-server. The LightDM will need it unless you know the another way. Put this file in the x11-servers/xorg-server/files/. Although, I don't know if it's 100% works, but at least it got me to the log in screen. *chuckles* http://people.freebsd.org/~mezz/patch/patch-hw__xfree86__os-support__bsd__bsd_init.c Cheers, Mezz -- mezz.freebsd@gmail.com - mezz@FreeBSD.org FreeBSD GNOME Team http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome/ - gnome@FreeBSD.org
