I use FreeBSD 13, I installed the X server, to start I tested xfce4 as a window manager, it works very well, I did not activate the loading of the desktop automatically but manually I did a startxfce4
. Curiosity pushes me to install Kde5, that’s what I did. I chose Slim and not Sddm as the login loader when connecting my KDE desktop. Slim does not log in, the screen stays on Slim’s crosshairs without loading the desktop. As I am afraid of making errors in the settings of Slim, I have written to you to solve my problem.
this the sample of /etc/rc.conf:
dbus_enable="YES"
hald_enable="YES"
# sddm_enable="YES"
kdm4_enable=”YES”
slim_enable="yes"
gdm_enable="YES"
run command with powerless user :
% echo "exec /usr/local/bin/startkde5 --with-ck-launch" > ~/.xinitrc
% echo "#!/bin/sh" > ~/.xsession
% echo "exec /usr/local/bin/startkde5 --with-ck-launch" >> ~/.xsession
% chmod +x ~/.xsession
it seems that Slim is not synchronous with the users of my station.
what do you need to configure?
