[Bug 799754] Re: Please let vendors easily provide their own config

 

No, this is not resolved. Using the symlink as mentioned in Comment #13
above still does not allow a user to log in to the correct session.
Further, the latest changes to lightdm give Xubuntu a black background
with the unity-greeter text and icon. This is far from correct for all
of us to be able to use it. Not choosing a session gives the wrong
session when logging in, and knowing to click an icon of a gear is not
intuitive. When the wrong session is used, it still takes 12 steps to
reset so the user can log into the correct session.

Title:
  Please let vendors easily provide their own config

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: lightdm

  Hi,

  Could you register lightdm.conf in the alternatives system? This would
  let derivatives set another default config easily (as done with gdm),
  and avoid the dpkg-divert nightmare that is going with gdm3.

  (currently, daily builds of xubuntu don't start any session because
  lightdm tries to start gnome which doesn't exist...)

  Thanks.
