Keine Ahnung wie ich das geschafft hab, aber ich betreibe ja mein Spiele- #NUC mit #Debian #Sid und da fliegen halt immer mal wieder großflächig Pakete aus dem System…

Jedenfalls bin ich jetzt in einem Zustand gelandet, bei dem #greetd und #phrog den Login-Bildschirm zeichnen.

Ich find das Ding ja nicht mal furchtbar… aber das ist hier echt kein Telefon? Ich hab momentan nicht mal einen Touchscreen dran hängen!

It was more difficult to move from #Slim (abandoned) to another manager. I was only able to get #greetd to work.

Hm, the problem didn’t go away, but I switched to greetd with tuigreet. It’s nice! 🐱☕ Note: the systemd‐service for greetd was not enabled by default (although sddm was installed at the time too).

Kennt sich hier jemand mit greetd aus und kann mir sagen, wie ich den auf mehreren virtuellen Konsolen starten kann?
(Wie ich den auf vt=1 starte, weiß ich, aber ich möchte ihn mit greeter1 auf vt=1 und mit anderem greeter2 auf vt=2 laufen haben. Geht das?)

Edit: ich war aufm falschen Holzweg. Ich muss zuerst systemd überreden getty auf z.B. tty2 zu starten und dann kann ich da ein agetty konfigurieren, oder so ähnlich.

It is so easy, #archlinux #greetd #opensc and pam_p11 auth module. Just add your #estonian id card certificate to trusted certs and configure (one line) pam_p11 in /etc/pam.d/system-auth and voila I can login to my computer using gov issued ID card.

Finally gto greetd + gtkgreet more or less working to launch xfce with Wayland.

#AlpineLinux #XFCE #Wayland #greetd

Here is how to test it in qemu:

Decided to stick with GDM, because to make it work, I need one line in my #NixOS configuraiton. Making #greetd work would require a great deal more, and I wouldn't gain much, if anything.

Playing with #greetd at the moment, and #ReGreet with cage is a no go, it either opens on the last output, or spans both, while I want it to open on the first. I can fix that, though.

Not a fan of #tuigreet, so that one's out.

The bigger problem is that... greetd does something differently compared to gdm. After logging in, things start up incredibly slow. I suppose that's some dbus thing not starting or something.

(Also, all greeters list every session twice for some odd reason)

Looked through the suggestions, and I think I'm gravitating towards something textual, like #greetd + #tuigreet.

I haven't tried them yet, but based on screenshots, I'm not a big fan of tuigreet. F3 to choose a session feels clunky, and the whole session setup is... a bit complicated and awkward for my liking.

So I might end up writing my own greeter for greetd. I like the concept. I just don't like tuigreet. I'm also not a big fan of the graphical ones, because they require starting up Xorg or Wayland, while ideally, I'd prefer not doing that until logging in.
