[SOLVED] LXDM installed but no /usr/bin/lxdm

G-Known · 11-15-2015, 11:11 PM

So I wanted to change my default X login manager to LXDM, I went to Slackbuilds website to download the source package and tar.gz file to build a slackware package. After installation, there are two main 'lxdm' it creates in /usr/sbin & /etc directory. There's a patch I've added to the rc.4 file that adds /usr/bin/lxdm to the first line before gdm/kdm/xdm.

Where's lxdm?

EDIT: UPDATE! After a reboot, the changes took effect. Since I can't delete this thread, it's marked solved.

Are you shure, that lxdm is installed?
You can use whereis to locate it.

I've built a custom LXDM package for Slackware 14.1. It has a few modifications and works great on stock Slackware. No dependencies needed.

32-bit:

64-bit:

This package already comes with a modified rc.4 file, so just install it and reboot.

Cheers,
