I just want to convey my heartfelt #greetingz to #greetd and #tuigreet while at the same time saying farewell to #lightdm and #sddm, you were just too much, sorry!

Kennt sich hier jemand mit greetd aus und kann mir sagen, wie ich den auf mehreren virtuellen Konsolen starten kann?
(Wie ich den auf vt=1 starte, weiß ich, aber ich möchte ihn mit greeter1 auf vt=1 und mit anderem greeter2 auf vt=2 laufen haben. Geht das?)
Edit: ich war aufm falschen Holzweg. Ich muss zuerst systemd überreden getty auf z.B. tty2 zu starten und dann kann ich da ein agetty konfigurieren, oder so ähnlich.

It is so easy, #archlinux #greetd #opensc and pam_p11 auth module. Just add your #estonian id card certificate to trusted certs and configure (one line) pam_p11 in /etc/pam.d/system-auth and voila I can login to my computer using gov issued ID card.

Finally gto greetd + gtkgreet more or less working to launch xfce with Wayland.

Here is how to test it in qemu:

Playing with #greetd at the moment, and #ReGreet with cage is a no go, it either opens on the last output, or spans both, while I want it to open on the first. I can fix that, though.
Not a fan of #tuigreet, so that one's out.
The bigger problem is that... greetd does something differently compared to gdm. After logging in, things start up incredibly slow. I suppose that's some dbus thing not starting or something.
(Also, all greeters list every session twice for some odd reason)
Continued thread
Looked through the suggestions, and I think I'm gravitating towards something textual, like #greetd + #tuigreet.
I haven't tried them yet, but based on screenshots, I'm not a big fan of tuigreet. F3 to choose a session feels clunky, and the whole session setup is... a bit complicated and awkward for my liking.
So I might end up writing my own greeter for greetd. I like the concept. I just don't like tuigreet. I'm also not a big fan of the graphical ones, because they require starting up Xorg or Wayland, while ideally, I'd prefer not doing that until logging in.
We did a whole bunch of #Documentation and #GObjectIntrospection annotation cleanups for #phosh 0.39.0 so we're able to create #Rust bindings (https://gitlab.gnome.org/guidog/libphosh-rs) . But what could this be useful for? Who would want to use a #MobileShell as library?
#phrog would! It's a #greetd compatible greeter by Sam Day written in #Rust: https://github.com/samcday/phrog . That way top-panel, quick settings, keypad, etc can basically look the same as in the logged in session.

Tempted some times to tear my #Gentoo build down to the absolute baseline and rebuild my desktop environment setup.
Maybe instead of #sddm use something very minimal like #GreetD and #Tuigreet. Maybe see if I could modify the base terminal to instead of the glowing default white I could make it something like older blue green or orange.
My issues with #greetd seem to be over 3 years old, and as expected, appear to not happen on systemd. But may be a PAM mis-configuration with elogind on #slackware. Whatever it is, it’s beyond me, I just don’t do PAM things.

This slow rolling #inxi / #pinxi refactor is hitting little things left and right, first the redo of the ps data handler, which morphed into the program version refactor, which then morphed into the just completed Display Manager refactor, which expanded to add the previously incorrectly ID'ed login/seat managers, like #seatd, #greetd, #elogind. Now inxi shows dm if detected dm, but if not, shows login: [manager] item instead. This covers situations like sway, labwc etc, started by seatd.

Ans yes I'm, open for feedback. (In case you couldn't tell from the fact that I linked my contact page twice)

I'm currently trying to figure out Rust and modify #greetd to support launching multiple sessions at once … If someone wants to help me that is more than welcome, my programming skills became a bit rusty (no pun intended) over the last year as I was mostly on the ops side of things
A short demo of my current #PinebookPro setup running #ManjaroARM, #swaywm and #greetd...

Integrated #greetd and it’s #gtkgreet addon into my #swaywm based #ManjaroARM installation. Very nice login manager for Wayland. As such the basic setup is complete and I will focus on some configuration details from now on...
