I tried the Ubuntu package for xfswitch-plugin without gdm3 (I use lightdm) onto a Debian wheezy desktop and it installs fine but doesn't work.
I used this one xfswitch-plugin (0.0.1-3ubuntu1) from http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/xfswitch-plugin This program requires gdmflexiserver which ubuntu includes in both gdm3 and lightdm so that you can install either. The debian version of lightdm does not include gdmflexiserver and so it would either need to be included in lightdm or in xfswitch-plugin, or in some other package. I tried extracting the gdmflexiserver binary from the gdm3 .deb file and manually copied it to /usr/bin This seems to work but I get this error "The name org.gnome.DisplayManager was not provided by any .service files" and now I am out of knowledge/experience. I would also like to request that xfswitch-plugin be fixed so that it can be used with lightdm instead of gdm3. thanks, Philip -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
