any efl login manager is going to be much fatter with respect to libraries loaded etc. etc. - it'll suck in a LOT of efl. but then again - if you then log into e17... it's moot as u need them anyway so it just moves the paging in to cache of efl a bit earlier. not to mention "entrance" will suck up some resources for theme etc. as such i dont think we need to much in a login manager: 1. actual login management goop (authenticate, switch user, run session). 2. allow typing of username and password 3. allow listing of usernames (and possible icons for them) 4. allow listing of available sessions (and icons) 5. some modularity (module for offering a suspend/power off, etc. etc. from login manager) and enough power management to be able to "auto-suspend, suspend if lid closed, screenblank properly etc. etc." 6. some ui design/wallpaper/whatever (tho edje pretty much solves this - it might be an idea to use elementary for any entrance replacement too). > On Thu, Apr 15, 2010 at 10:02 PM, Mysth-R <mysth...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi > > > > 2010/4/16 Terminus Est <richterlevan...@gmail.com> > > > >> Hi there, > >> > >> About a week ago I tried e17 one more time.
