Hi All,
I do adore lxdm (I've had issues with lightdm.)
I finally wrote down how to set lxdm up.
-T
lxdm: installing
Note: you can <ctrl><alt>f2> to open a command prompt as root if needed.
[1] if lightdm is installed: # systemctl disable lightdm # dnf remove lightdm
[2] install lxdm: # dnf install lxdm --allowerasing # systemctl enable lightdm
[3] edit lxdm.conf for a) any autologins and b) desired session (default does not always catch it) Mate: session=/usr/bin/mate-session Xfce: session=/usr/bin/startxfce4
# vi /etc/lxdm/lxdm.conf
[base] ## uncomment and set autologin username to enable autologin # autologin=todd autologin=todd
## default session or desktop used when no systemwide config # session=/usr/bin/startlxde session=/usr/bin/startxfce4
[4] reboot
[5] if lxdm does not auto start but does start from # systemctl start lxdm
run the following: # systemctl set-default graphical.target # systemctl enable -f lxdm reboot
