I don't recall using that command recently, so I reworked my own bootscript (its problems were listed earlier :) to only run 'ck-launch-session sddm'. I had been in runlevel 3 with icewm-session run from .xinitrc, so no ck, polkit, etc. I then tried to start my bootscript, and the results appeared encouraging: from the greeter, suspend (to RAM) worked and reboot worked (but I tried poweroff before reboot and that did NOT seem to work).
But after the reboot I removed the symlinks from my initscript and edited my sddm-start script (used to be 'dbus-launch sddm', now 'ck-launch-session sddm'). I also edited my inittab to invoke that script in runlevel 5. Pain - only the login icon appeared. Back to runlevel 3, then tried /etc/rc,d/init.d/sddm start : again, only the login icon. :-( ( I know Bruce doesn't see any need for suspend on a desktop, but I use it to save leccy and heat, and I also invoke pm-suspend from a command line or script so that I can leave a build running and let it suspend when the script either completes or fails.) For the moment, I suppose the most useful thing I can do is get my theme ready for a pre-release. It's nothing special, just a picture of a butterfly in my garden with a box for entering user name and password, and selecting the desktop, and one or more icons. <Enter> works for login (or the icon), but everything else needs CK and polkit to get the icons for poweroff and reboot, and upower with pm-suspend for suspend). And I need to add a reminder that, from the greeter, Ctrl-Alt-Fn (where n is from 2 to 6) will take you to a tty where you can run 'telinit 3' if it is too broken to use, or 'telinit 0' to power off. Perhaps I should also point out that people need a .desktop file in /usr/share/xsessions. ĸen -- This one goes up to eleven! -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
