LXDM, in my case. Before, I used SLIM. I started using login tools, after reading about security issues without them (I cannot remember if it was in Gentoo or ArchLinux). > There are examples for two of the three at the bottom of the > configuration page here: > http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/x/xorg-config.html I would > like to add one for nVidia cards as well, but don't have the hardware > currently.

There are no modelines for the resolutions that I need to use for vmware-player. Also, the driver must be *vesa*, without vm-tools, and *vmwlegacy*, after the tools are installed. I have to define video driver and modelines, using cvt and then use them in xorg.conf. Without it, xrandr cannot set the desired screen size. With the wrong driver I had to wait almost a minute, when trying to move windows. This is being written in a guest vmware-player running LFS6.8. Attached is a copy of the xorg.conf. Essential sections are Section "ServerFlags" Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Keyboard0" Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" (when using a Marble Mouse) Section "Modes" (to define modeline) Section "Monitor" (to define HorizSync VertRefresh and UseModes) Section "Device" (to define video driver) Section "Screen" (to define DefaultDepth and Modes) To each one, I have a respective file in LFS SVN-20111210. -- []s, Fernando
