Fedora :: Exclude - Hide A User From GDM Logon Window
May 31, 2010If you need to to exclude one or mode user from your gdm login window you must edit "/etc/gdm/gdm.schemas" and add the user you want exclude from the <key> "greeter/Exclude" (near the other user in <default></default>)
When Fedora could have a gdm config again?
Red Hat :: Backup Exec Default Exclude List?
Feb 4, 2010I am looking for a default, or starting "exclude list" for system backups. We are currently using Symantec Backup Exec, but I also do not think that is important to this question. I would think that the Oracle "lock" files and the /var/run/*.pid files can be excluded from the backup, and probably the dell file also. Can some provide a list of files/directories that can be excluded (from backup) for RHEL 5?

Aug 29, 2011I am running 11.4_64, KDE47 (recent update from 46)
I have three Suse Linux pcs on my network.
I'll call them desktop, media center and laptop.
I am logged in to my desktop , I want to open a new session and log in to my media center.
From GUI, I select application launcher - leave -switch user and get a fresh kdm greeter screen.
On the Greeter screen, I select Menu - Remote Login
A window opens displaying three machines - my desktop, my laptop and my media center.
When I move the mouse into the new window to select the media center as the new target machine, the window immediately closes.
I have Xdmcp access enabled in kdmrc on all three systems(and rebooted).
This did work fine back when I was on KDE45 and KDE46.
Is there a new permission or setting now under KDE47?

View 2 Replies View RelatedFedora :: How To Exclude Package From Software Update?
Jan 21, 2010On my Fedora 11 x86_64 computer I have installed OOo 3.1.1 from www.openoffice.org because I need features that Fedora disabled in the repository version.And the latter also shows up in Software Update. Now, I went around and around with this and I know that installing the 1.3.1.1 package will break my OOo. I don't want Software Update even to list the 1.3.1.1 package because sooner or later I will slip up and install it on accident.
Side note: Why does Software Update think 1.3.1.1 is newer than 1.5.1? If it really is newer, someone at OOo needs to learn arithmetic.I think I can add an exclude line to /etc/yum.conf. But I can't figure out the syntax, and I don't know which package to exclude - the one I don't want updated or the alleged update package? Both? Or just the first part "openoffice.org-ure"?
Fedora Installation :: Exclude The Kernel And Initrd From Being Updated?
Jan 21, 2009I had to uninstall f10 from my system because it would lock up my system anywhere from 1 to 5 minutes into using it and noone could tell me why.
NOW, I put 9 back on my system and after it updates everything, it locks up again. it does give me the option of the new kernel and the original install's kernel and if I choose the original to boot with, I don't have any problems.
SO, is there any way to fix it, OR to exclude the kernel and initrd from being updated?

Jul 27, 2011I have a dual monitor setup using TwinView running an up-to-date Ubuntu 11.04 amd64. The GDM (login) greeter is displayed in the center of the screen, and thus, one half of the greeter is on the left monitor and the other half is on the right monitor. I've been trying to find away to move the greeter to only one monitor. I've searched Google and the forums for an answer.
Here's what I've tried:
1) gmdsetup => does not have an option to position the greeter
2) gconf-editor => does not have an option to position the greeter
3) ubuntu-tweak => does not have an option to position the greeter
4) Tried these settings in
/etc/gdm/custom.conf, /etc/gdm/gdm.conf,
/etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom, /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf:
Code:
[greeter]
SetPosition=true
PositionX=200
PositionY=300
5) Mucked around with
/usr/share/gconf/schemas/gdm-simple-greeter.schemas ,
/usr/share/gdm/gdm-greeter-login-window.ui,
/var/lib/dpkg/info/gdm.conffiles

View 5 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Get User List Dialog At Startup
Jul 17, 2010My girlfriend has a Toshiba Satellite Athlon64 laptop, and she can't get it to go past the user list dialog before it logs all the way in. We've tried her username and password, but every time we enter it, the screen blanks for a moment and then returns to the user list dialog. I've reset the password by booting to terminal, but it still won't let us past the dialog. I'd hate to have to reinstall her system. Is there any way we can get past this? And, why is it not accepting the password? I couldn't find an open bug on this issue.
Also, we had just installed OpenShot Video Editor during the same session. She said she got it from the Synaptic Package Manager. I'm not sure if this messed with her video settings. We can see X trying to start after we put the password in, but it keeps going back to the user list dialog. Actually, I uninstalled OpenShot and gnome-screensaver from the root prompt, just in case they were causing the issue. I had noticed that the laptop was buggy coming in and out of hibernation. I wonder if that's causing X not to start properly? I did check the startup logs and I didn't see any errors there either.

View 2 Replies View RelatedDebian :: Random Images On Lightdm Greeter
Oct 11, 2015System is Wheezy 7.9 with lightdm and MATE desktop.
I have 128GB SSD with various partitions for operating systems and a separate HDD for the /home folders for each OS. Wheezy is my primary system, the others, apart from the original XP are experimental.
/etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf is

# background = Background file to use, either an image path or a color (e.g. #772953)
# show-language-selector (true or false)
# theme-name = GTK+ theme to use

The problem is that each time I use the Ubuntu system and I change back to Debian, the greeter background contains snippets of whatever was displayed while I was in Ubuntu. What I don't understand is how this can happen, given that the operating systems are installed in separate partitions with separate /home partitions as well. After I have used Debian and restart, the greeter screen is clear, as it should be.URL....
OpenSUSE Install ::return To The Greeter GUI After A Brief Blip?
Mar 15, 2011I today upgraded to 11.4 using a downloaded DVD.
I was at 11.3/kde4.6.1. I did a clean install of 11.4, reusing my /home partition from 11.3. This is a desktop, legacy ATI (uses RADEON driver)
After the install process, I ran YAST-Software Management to grab recent updates.
Rebooted system, all seemed OK.
I then added the KDE46/11.4 repo, ran YAST and performed a "Switch to files in this repo" to move to 4.6.1.
I logged out, but cannot log back in, I simply return to the Greeter GUI after a brief blip.
Logging in to console, I don't see anything definitive in /var/log/* as to what the problem might be.
