I would say an extremely small number. Why? Because the vast majority would be installing a desktop and using the DM supplied with that desktop. If a desktop uses lightDM then it would have been installed with the necessary greeter. I don't think many go through the trouble to install/change their DM. And, since many/most/some folks installing Fedora start with GNOME the pieces needed for lightDM are already there should they choose to install it. FWIW, I found that nugget of documentation in the LightDM - ArchWiki which is the only link I followed after searching on google for lightdm. This I did after installing only lightDM and being faced with a blank screen. > Ok, Fedora does not focus on being beginner friendly, other goals like > leading edge virtualization are more important and actually that is > what draws me. > > Anyhow, let's drop the issue for now, and see if anyone else twigs on > these words in the future. Cheers Sounds like a plan! -- I'm jet lagged. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
