I used to use lightdm for some time but from time to time I faced with very *strange* message from various programs about connection to dbus (they refered to /tmp/dbus-XXXXX, saying "Connection failed" or something like that, but dbus is started by systemd and it's socket is in /run NOT in /tmp). I tried to investigate this problem but without any success. Moreover, I found some problem with how lightdm initialize session (I don't remember details, though I filed a bug report for that) but AFAIU it wasn't fixed. I switched to sddm and don't see any more any messages about dbus in /tmp. > Thanks, > > DR --- WBR, Vladimir Lomov -- When women kiss it always reminds one of prize fighters shaking hands. -- H.L.
