What kind of X?
Joh people.
I am already using Slackware for about 3 months and it's one of the best distro's I have seen. (btw, the seconde one I am trying, first one was Red Hat :D ) Anyway, about my subject. In RedHat there was a "Login-program" or something like that. It starts after everything is started of the start-up of linux and you get a login-screen, with username and password AND you can choose what X you can choose. KDE, Gnome,Window Maker and that kind of stuff. Isn't there something like that for example on Slackware? (I think I have it on my Slackware as well, but I really don't know where) And even if you people are gonna tell me, how can I make it startable? But I think I will find it in the README of the program you people are gonna tell me to use. |
what you're after is part of kde / gnome etc.. not distro specific at all, you'll presumably just be booting to runlevel 3 or 4 (text login) instead of 5, which uses an X login, etc /etc/inittab and change the default level to 5.
|
probably you are looking for "xdm", "kdm" or "gdm"
checking your runlevel (man init) and setting it to "5" (the "initdefault" entry in /etc/inittab) |
So if I put it on level 5, that login things comes from itself?
Or do I have to put a command in the start-up for that as well.... |
Oh, yes, I cee :P
# These are the default runlevels in Slackware: # 0 = halt # 1 = single user mode # 2 = unused (but configured the same as runlevel 3) # 3 = multiuser mode (default Slackware runlevel) # 4 = X11 with KDM/GDM/XDM (session managers) # 5 = unused (but configured the same as runlevel 3) # 6 = reboot # Default runlevel. (Do not set to 0 or 6) id:3:initdefault: So that 3 should be a 4 |
Not necessarily :)
If you like using the text fullscreen console every now and so often (I do ;}) and aren't happy with just having one of those (Alt-F6 is all you get using runlevel 4) you can start kdm (gdm, xdm) from /etc/rc.d/rc.local... Cheers, Tink |
Thanks people.
It works fine :P |
