good question I wasn't daring to pose so far. login and startx (and ~/.xinitrc configuration) work like a charm on Devuan... and anywhere else FWIW. plus give you the big advantage of not having to start X to execute quick text-only tasks. FTR whenever I *need* a DM then I use XDM and ~/.xsession conf. the talent of golinux is the main reason why I'm keen to facilitate the sugar coating of Devuan, because her and hellekin's ideas may really bring some innovation in making pleasant the visual presentation of an OS. but then one really needs to be pro-active about it here. So: if anyone wants a DM that is not packaged, even before asking for it should do an effort at its packaging. ciao _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list [email protected] https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
