KDM in Debian
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
This package comes with a copy of the KDM handbook in docbook format.
|
|
To read it, run "khelpcenter help:/kdm" from a command-line or go to the
|
|
URL "help:/kdm" in konqueror.
|
|
|
|
By default, the use of special graphical themes with KDM is disabled.
|
|
If you wish to use the 'Circles' theme that comes with the kdm package, or
|
|
any other theme that you have installed, you should research the
|
|
'UseTheme' and 'Theme' fields in /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc. This can be done
|
|
by browsing this URL in Konqueror:
|
|
|
|
help:/kdm/kdm-files.html#kdmrc-greeter
|
|
|
|
KDM Customization
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
We provide a way to override theme-related values normally set in the
|
|
master configuration file (kdmrc):
|
|
* USEBACKGROUND
|
|
* BACKGROUNDCFG
|
|
* USETHEME
|
|
* THEME
|
|
* AUTOLOGINAGAIN
|
|
* AUTOLOGINDELAY
|
|
* AUTOLOGINLOCKED
|
|
* AUTOLOGINUSER
|
|
|
|
and background configuration file (backgroundrc):
|
|
* WALLPAPER
|
|
|
|
You just need to create a file with overridden value(s) and put it in
|
|
kdm override directory (default is /etc/default/kdm.d).

Below this is direct from the xdm package README
|
|
================================================
|
|
|
|
Debian README for the xdm package:
|
|
|
|
Newcomers to the X Window System should first read the file
|
|
/opt/kde3/share/doc/x11-common/FAQ.gz. You can view this file with your
|
|
favorite pager program after decompressing it. For example:
|
|
$ zcat /opt/kde3/share/doc/x11-common/FAQ.gz | pager
|
|
|
|
The default configuration for the X display manager (xdm) under Debian
|
|
GNU/Linux presumes that one wishes xdm to manage one local session. (In
|
|
other words, the xdm login screen occupies one virtual console
|
|
automatically at boot.) If one does not wish to run a local X server, the
|
|
following line should be commented out of /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers:
|
|
|
|
:0 local /usr/bin/X11/X vt7 -deferglyphs 16
|
|
|
|
Several configuration files are shipped with the xdm package; they reside
|
|
in the /etc/X11/xdm/ directory. Extensive documentation about the xdm
|
|
configuration files may be found in the xdm(1) manual page.
|
|
|
|
xdm-config contains X resources specific to xdm itself. See the X(1)
|
|
manual page for more information about X resources, and the xdm(1) manual
|
|
pages for documentation of the available xdm resources.
|
|
|
|
Xresources contains X resources that are designed to be specfic to sessions
|
|
running under xdm. Note that this file does contain the resource entries
|
|
for xdm itself -- those are contained in the file xdm-config. See the X(1)
|
|
manual page for more information about X resources.
|
|
|
|
The above three files, despite being X resource files, are not placed in the
|
|
/etc/X11/Xresources directory (see /opt/kde3/share/doc/xbase/README.Debian) because
|
|
they should not be used automatically in all X sessions; the /etc/X11/Xsession
|
|
script merges in the resources of all files found in /etc/X11/Xresources, and
|
|
this action would be inappropriate for these resource files.
|
|
|
|
Xservers contains entries to start the X server(s) on the local machine, and
|
|
on any remote X terminals that do not support XDMCP. This file is internally
|
|
documented.
|
|
|
|
Xaccess determines what hosts on the network may use the services of the
|
|
running xdm daemon. This file is internally documented. Note that as of
|
|
version 3.3.4-1 of the xdm package, all remote XDMCP access is turned off
|
|
by default.
|
|
|
|
Xstartup is a shell script which is run (as root) after a user has logged in
|
|
on a server.
|
|
|
|
Xreset is a shell script which is run (as root) after a user's X session ends on
|
|
a server.
|
|
|
|
xdm.options contains configuration options for xdm that are specific to the
|
|
Debian GNU/Linux system. See the xdm.options(5) manual page for more
|
|
information.
