Hi,
I experimented some issues with new lubuntu's 12.04 lightdm. I think it runs more slow than with the lxdm.
So I would like to share with you how I change the default desktop with autologin, language switcher with Alt+Shift (implemented in lxpanel), and without desktop (I use conky in background).
This is not a sexy howto, but I think that could help to someone.
remember!
$ => run command as user
# => run command as root (or sudo <command>)
Alt+F2 and go to lxterminal
Install lxdm and LXDE environment
# sudo apt-get install lxdm lxde
Select lxdm as default desktop when appear a menu
Remove lightdm
# sudo apt-get remove lightdm notification-daemon
is not really necessary to delete notification-daemon but in one computer take me "errors" at startup, so...
copy the style of autostart applications of Lubuntu in LXDE
/etc/xdg/lxsession/Lubuntu/autostart
/etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart
Personally, I use LXDE profiles instead Lubuntu profiles
This are the lines for:
# leafpad /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart
and put this:
@lxpanel --profile LXDE
@xscreensaver -no-splash
@xfce4-power-manager
@pcmanfm --desktop --profile LXDE
@/usr/lib/policykit-1-gnome/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1
@setxkbmap -option grp:alt_shift_toggle "es,us"
delete ~/.dmrc, is needed to do default desktop LXDE
$ rm ~/.dmrc
autologin:
$ leafpad /etc/lxdm/lxdm.conf
and in line of autologin add your user
autologin=youruser
