• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED OBSOLETE

[Description ta2002 2016-06-03 19:44:38 UTC]

Not sure what is going on here.

Installed lxdm. When I tried to log in, I was returned to the greeter screen, with this line in /var/log/messages.

can you check with lxde-base/lxdm-0.5.3-r1?

[Comment 2 ta2002 2018-05-08 02:20:27 UTC]

The "good" news is that there is no longer that line in /var/log/messages (seems there is a tendency to log less information now, which is not helpful :( ).

The bad news is I still can't log in (just get returned to the greeter screen as before).

I have determined it is (now, at least) not related to consolekit, though. I get the same behavior whether lxdm was compiled with USE=consolekit or USE=-consolekit.

I don't need to do anything other than change DISPLAYMANAGER="xdm" to DISPLAYMANAGER="lxdm" in /etc/conf.d/xdm, do I?

[Comment 3 Brian Evans (RETIRED) 2021-08-25 13:19:50 UTC]

No more consolekit
