Prev: configure wireless essid & enc key in debian squeeze?
Next: slackware 13.1 boot problem
From: Todd on 8 Aug 2010 00:17
Hi All,

Under Fedora Core 12, I have lost gdmsetup, so I have to
do it manually.

How do I:

1) How do I change the gdm greeter?

2) How do I configure automatic logon?

3) How do I configure everyone to login with Xfce
instead of gnome?

4) How do I configure the users that show up in the gdm greeter?

Many thanks,
-T

Todd, see if you can find your answers over here:

This configuration will be in the file /etc/gdm/gdm.conf
or for newer versions (2.30 onwards) of gdm in /etc/gdm/custom.conf

Note that in the bid to "simplify" gdm, the developpers have removed
a lot of configuration possibilities in the dumb down from 2.29 to 2.30.

Not so:

http://projects.gnome.org/gdm/docs/2.18/configuration.html
System configuration is stored in <share>/gdm/defaults.conf

http://projects.gnome.org/gdm/docs/2.20/configuration.html
GDM uses two configuration files: the GDM System Defaults Configuration
File (<share>/gdm/defaults.conf) and the GDM Custom Configuration File
(<etc>/gdm/custom.conf).

[...]

Previous to GDM 2.13.0.4 only the <etc>/gdm/gdm.conf existed.

Indeed, and they haven't fully documented this change yet.
