The Light Display Manager (LightDM) 1.12.2 released, available for Arch, Debian, Elementary OS, Fedora, Gentoo, Mageia, OpenSUSE, Ubuntu
LightDM is an open source graphical software that can be used as a greeter/login manage or display manager on any Linux-based operating system that uses the X Window System. LightDM is also known as The Light Display Manager, and it is appreciated by Linux distribution developers, package developers, and system implementors for its well-defined greeter API, which supports multiple graphical user interfaces.
What's new in LightDM 1.12.1:
- Fix crash when having configuration keys defined in multiple places
- Allow user switching in multi-seat until bug stopping greeter showing on logout is fixed
- Disable log message when AccountsService users change
Supports a wide range of desktop environments
Supporting the GNOME, KDE, Razor-Qt, Unity and Elementary desktop environments, the LightDM software integrates well with each of the aforementioned environments via separate installable packages. In addition, all display manager use cases are well supported, backed by plugins where needed. Not to mention that the application provides users with low code complexity and fast performance on all Linux operating systems.
Default in Ubuntu, available on dozens of distros
Canonical selected LightDM as the default login manager for its Ubuntu Linux operating system. It is also used in the Xubuntu, Kubuntu, Edubuntu and Mythbuntu distributions. We recommend LightDM for all Linux users who want a modern, eye-candy and reliable display manager for their Linux distribution. It can easily replace GDM, XDM, KDM, and other similar login managers.
