Hello,I guess Didier is looking for a decent modern looking lightweight but still accessible display manager for Slint.
Gnome is not part of Slint thus using GDM 40 is not verry appealing for packaging as part of Slint as it would pull a lot of gnome specific dependencies e.g. gnome-shell.
Still using GDM 2.32 is perhaps very very conservative thing to do. On systems where I am not running gnome I am using lightdm similar to Kyle and Alexander and it's working great for me too.

About the login manager discussion:is there a serious problem with gdm currently? or whats the point here. Just interested.Am 22.04.21 um 02:08 schrieb Alexander Epaneshnikov via orca-list:22.04.2021 3:03, Kyle via orca-list пишет:Nice find. I wasn't aware of lightdm-slick-greeter. I'm guessing that like lightdm-gtk-greeter, it can be configured to start orca automatically.yesLightdm-gtk-greeter does have the added benefit of the graphical configuration tool, which needs a little work, but is pretty much usable.haven't used it so can't comment.But on a new install, as long as /etc/lightdm/lightdm- slick-greeter.conf can contain a line that starts orca or a shortcut key can be pressed that starts it, it does sound like another good option.yes default gnome shortcut will start orca.In fact, if the shortcut works, it will be somewhat better than lightdm-gtk-greeter, as its shortcut for some reason doesn't work for me, and I had to configure it manually.as far as I remember, everything works out of the box. at least I didn't have to change any configs.except of course lightdm.conf~Kyle_______________________________________________ orca-list mailing list orca-list gnome org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/orca-list Orca wiki: https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Orca Orca documentation: https://help.gnome.org/users/orca/stable/GNOME Universal Access guide: https://help.gnome.org/users/gnome-help/stable/a11y.html
