I suspect that this is a bug of some kind in lightdm in its detection of whether to use systemd-only features. That said, the display managers in Debian other than kdm and gdm are not ready for systemd at the moment. I had to switch to gdm3 to use systemd (by which I mean booting with it) because neither slim nor lightdm worked properly. But I believe slim already has a new upstream release that does work properly, and I'm quite sure these bugs will be fixed relatively quickly given how widespread systemd is going to become (regardless of what Debian does). -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
