-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Bonjour,
I have just finished my debian installation and I have a few questions: 1- For some reason the root account was not activated (I, maybe, missed some step); so I activated it following the docs, but there are two problems: a) root can login through lightdm and access a graphical session! How to disable this? b) root umask is set to 077, which is problematic if you don't pay attention to this setting. 2- Is there a gnome-network-manager like program under xfce? I try to have an installation with a minimum number of gnome packages. I tried to install gnome-network-manager, but I got a full installation of gnome desktop which made a "coup d'état" and took power over xfce. I purged my system from gnome packages. 3- Is it possible to install a package without its dependencies with apt-get? I wanted to install auctex but apt-get wants to install a lot of TeX packages which I don't want. I know, auctex is made for TeX, but I install texlive directly from CTAN and don't want to have 2 TeX installations. 4- I installed emacs24, and it returns a warning when it is launched from an xfce terminal: Gtk-WARNING **: gtk window parse geometry() called on a window with no visible children; the window should be set up before gtk window parse geometry() is called. What does this mean?
