Description

It appears to be two issues here from the above description (although I didn't try myself): - gdm doesn't allow the user to select other desktop (most likely another instance of Bug 3368, as xguest doesn't have a password). - gdm tries to log in into gnome (despite gnome is not installed), which should only happen when the first option in the gdm list of available sessions is gnome. That might be the problem. CC:

gruescubogdan (In reply to comment #1) > It appears to be two issues here I think you are correct on both counts. I just did a clean install from DVD and installed only the LXDE desktop and then after install did 'urpmi --test gdm' The suggested packages included gnome-session which contains the DM menu entries for gnome as well as seemingly unrelated packages such as gcalctool , gnome-power-manager, and gnome-screenshot # urpmi --test gdm In order to satisfy the 'typelib(Gtk)' dependency, one of the following packages is needed: 1- libgtk-gir3.0-3.6.1-2.mga3.i586: GObject introspection interface library for gtk+3.0 (to install) 2- libgtk-gir2.0-2.24.13-1.mga3.i586: GObject Introspection interface description for gtk+2.0 (to install) What is your choice? (1-2) 2 To satisfy dependencies, the following packages are going to be installed: (test only, installation will not be actually done) Package Version Release Arch (medium "Core Release (distrib1)") GConf2-sanity-check 3.2.5 1.mga2 i586 accountsservice 0.6.25 2.mga3 i586 cdialog 1.1 1.20120706.1> i586 gcalctool 6.6.1 1.mga3 i586 (suggested) gdm 3.6.1 1.mga3 i586 gnome-icon-theme-symbolic 3.6.0 1.mga3 noarch gnome-power-manager 3.6.0 2.mga3 i586 (suggested) gnome-screenshot 3.6.0 1.mga3 i586 (suggested) gnome-session 3.6.1 1.mga3 i586 (suggested) gnome-session-bin 3.6.1 1.mga3 i586 gnome-settings-daemon 3.6.1 3.mga3 i586 gnome-user-docs 3.6.1 2.mga3 noarch (suggested) gobject-introspection 1.34.1.1 1.mga3 i586 (suggested) ibus 1.4.99.2012> 5.mga3 i586 (suggested) ibus-gtk 1.4.99.2012> 5.mga3 i586 (suggested) ibus-gtk3 1.4.99.2012> 5.mga3 i586 (suggested) ibus-ui-gtk3 1.4.99.2012> 5.mga3 i586 (suggested) libaccountsservice0 0.6.25 2.mga3 i586 libatk-gir1.0 2.6.0 1.mga3 i586 (suggested) libcairo-gir1.0 1.34.1.1 1.mga3 i586 (suggested) libcanberra-gtk0 0.29 2.mga3 i586 libfontconfig-gir2.0 1.34.1.1 1.mga3 i586 (suggested) libfreetype-gir2.0 1.34.1.1 1.mga3 i586 (suggested) libgdk_pixbuf-gir2.0 2.26.4 1.mga3 i586 (suggested) libgdm1 3.6.1 1.mga3 i586 libgdmsimplegreeter1 3.6.1 1.mga3 i586 libgirepository1.0_1 1.34.1.1 1.mga3 i586 (suggested) libgtk-gir2.0 2.24.13 1.mga3 i586 (suggested) libgtop-gir2.0 2.28.4 1.mga2 i586 libgtop2 2.28.4 1.mga2 i586 libgtop2.0_7 2.28.4 1.mga2 i586 libibus-gir1.0 1.4.99.2012> 5.mga3 i586 (suggested) libibus1.0_5 1.4.99.2012> 5.mga3 i586 libimobiledevice 1.1.4 2.mga3 i586 libimobiledevice3 1.1.4 2.mga3 i586 libmetacity-private0 2.34.13 1.mga3 i586 libpango-gir1.0 1.32.1 1.mga3 i586 (suggested) libplist 1.8 1.mga2 i586 libplist1 1.8 1.mga2 i586 libpyglib-gi2.0_0 3.4.1 1.mga3 i586 (suggested) librsvg 2.36.4 1.mga3 i586 (suggested) libupower-glib1 0.9.18 4.mga3 i586 libusbmuxd2 1.0.8 2.mga3 i586 libwacom 0.6 0.1.mga3 i586 libwacom2 0.6 0.1.mga3 i586 libxft-gir2.0 1.34.1.1 1.mga3 i586 (suggested) libxlib-gir2.0 1.34.1.1 1.mga3 i586 (suggested) metacity 2.34.13 1.mga3 i586 python-gi 3.4.1 1.mga3 i586 (suggested) python-pyxdg 0.19 3.mga1 noarch (suggested) upower 0.9.18 4.mga3 i586 usbmuxd 1.0.8 2.mga3 i586 zenity 3.6.0 2.mga3 i586 67MB of additional disk space will be used. 17MB of packages will be retrieved. Tracing the dependencies, gdm has a Require for gnome-settings-deamon which has a Suggests for gnome-session Does gdm really need gnome-settings-daemon as a Require?
