/usr/share/xsessions
Hi,
I added a new .desktop file in /usr/share/xsessions , however Fedora 26 isn't showing it as an option on login. I'm using Cinnamon and have tried killing lightdm. Do I need to edit any configuration for it to show? |
I'm not sure if you would have to edit a configuration file or not.
I've never played with it:- Here's an Xsessions WiKi that might help. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CustomXSession https://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=312701 Lightdm is part of the display mgr so killing it might not be good for the Cinnamon DE. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/LightDM https://crunchbang.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=38513 -::-Try looking in 'show hidden files' in your file manager under 'view'. Is the desktop file you created there?-::- |
Thanks.
Sorted it in the end. My .desktop file was referring to a command with args in Exec and TryExec fields. Changed it to refer to a script instead and now working. |

Glad to hear it's working. Was the script fairly easy to write? |
