FWIW, below is the trimmed-down version of a list I shamelessly ripped from: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/display_manager I edited out the ones I already know are too bloated. I did not do any research on the remaining ones, nor have I used any of them in the past! | List of display managers | | Console | | CDM — Ultra-minimalistic, yet full-featured login manager written in Bash. | Console TDM — Extension for xinit written in pure Bash. | nodm — Minimalistic display manager for automatic logins. | | Graphical | | LXDM — LXDE display manager. Can be used independent of the LXDE desktop environment. | XDM — X display manager with support for XDMCP, host chooser. > nor that lightdm can be tamed to a more minimal set of dependencies? [...] I /suspect/(!) it's not so much about lightdm itself, but more about the gtl-greeter. I wonder how much effort it be to "tame" that, or even replace it with a more minimalist approach.
