X11 for various distros
What are some basic login manager (X11) for various distributions?
(1) Red Hat (2) Vanilla (3) Fedora (4) Debian/Ubuntu Thanks. |
...X11 is not the login manager, it's the whole system that enables the graphical interface. And I think it's called "display manager," not "login manager"
But as to your qiuestion... 1. http://bit.ly/1k8l3YO 2. IDK what you mean by "vanilla"...I've never heard of a distro by that name 3. http://bit.ly/1iU7AsF 4. http://bit.ly/1k8lcLG Google is your friend! Just read the preview of the first few results, and it's there. |

Display managers also vary according to the desktop used. Fedora and Red Hat offer KDE and Gnome: the first has KDM and the second GDM. Similarly, Mate has MDM. I suspect most distros will use those. There's also LXDM, SLiM, lightdm, xdm...
Wikipedia has an article explaining what a display manager does. The Arch Wiki has a article telling you what's available: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Display_Manager Between them, those two sources alone will answer most questions about the basic components of Linux. {You may now give me a reputation point!) |
anyone know much about Vanilla?

Vanilla in terms of Linux means to describe unmodified, unpatched, and clean code from upsteam sources. It doesn't mean just a plain or standard package.
As far as login-managers (desktop managers) go, KDM, GDM, and XDM are the most commonly used on just about any distribution with KDM being the highest common per capita. |

As far as I am aware there is no vanilla Linux with a desktop environment shipped by Linus and the team? sndlt: What are you asking here? Are you asking what the default display manager is for the various distributions? Or are you asking what the default desktop environment is? Or something else? |
I got my question already answered. That Vanilla is an unmodified distribution.
Thank you. |
