How can I change login manager?
I just installed SuSE 9.0 on a PC and I realised that it was using the xdm login manager by default. At the beggining I thought that s.thing was wrong with the kde or kdm installation-inisialisation but I tried to run kdm and it is working properly. My problem is that I don't know how to change the login manager to kdm as default. Any sugestions?

In debian I had installed both..first xdm then kdm,when I installed kdm I was querried as to which I wanted to use I chose kdm all is well..you could remove xdm and it should default to the only available...
|
Thanks for your answer. I don't know how can I remove xdm. Can you give me some details?
|
as root:
apt-get remove xdm .. but actually, that might remove all of x-windows. So ya might not wanna do that ;-) |
For this u can edit a script file named prefdm, i dont know whether this will be same in suse
but have done same in redhat & fedora many times. first check out the file in /etc/X11/prefdm if it exists then u r done otherwise............ now open the file and go to section "# Run preferred X display manager" then replace the xdm with the kdm like "preferred=kdm" this should solve when u reboot . dont know if works on suse. |
i think the config for display manager is somewhere is /etc/sysconfig
or u can use the yast configuration editor, find the entry and change the displaymanager to KDM |
doesn't Yast has a session manager chooser, where you could switch to kdm??
