I have not bothered to Well I didn't write entrance... so they aren't connected. Entrance long ago was due for a rewrite I think but I don't know what happened there. The above has been new musings mostly because of Wayland and at least my desire to have a "seamless experience" where your login manager can work properly without X and then seamlessly fade out to black, then your full normal login session begin and fade in from black. Entrance was definitely an X login manager and even if the X bits were removed or made optional, it'd still then have to add more and more of the features above that are already in E, and that just doesn't make a lot of sense to do. > try to bring it into Mageia, but my old Manjaro setup I had it working rather > nicely, even grabbing backgrounds from the themes to use in it. > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most > engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot > _______________________________________________ > enlightenment-users mailing list > enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users -- ------------- Codito, ergo sum - "I code, therefore I am" -------------- Carsten Haitzler - ras...@rasterman.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ enlightenment-users mailing list enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users
