We now test important system updates (who wants help us may add repo from ABF directly). Thay consists two common features:
1. Full drop dm/prefdm/lookupdm sysvinit in grafical subsystem. Now what dm will need load select via systemd as symlinking dm service to /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service
2. For switch dm now need use systemctl disable xyzolddm.service -> systemctl enable xyznewdm.service
3. drakedm not work so - we fix this in near feature and add it to DE Control Center.
4. Now graphical console is NUMBER ONE, instead of #7 virtual console.
5. All things, related to drakx-net (draknetcenter, netapplet, etc) fully disabled (program files still present, but not works properly and this will be fixed in next drakx-net and drakxtools update) - now only 'vanilla' network with using sctips if/cfg/up/down and NetworkManager will work. Latest moved from Mandriva workaround to upstream RH way.
6. DM fixed to work via systemd are: kdm, gdm, lightdm, slim. If you will need some other DM (like xdm for example), say us about.
7. In private repo DM may not patched, and this is the case of KDE 4.10.3 (yesterday status)
If you use a private repo DE and get blackscreen, simple press CTRL+F2 and then (from root)
where xyzdm.service your DM (for example kdm.service or gdm.service).Code: Select all
systemctl enable xyzdm.service
for example, if KDE with KDM--Code: Select all
systemctl enable kdm.service
