I got gapan's slkbuild from this package http://salix.enialis.net/x86_64/13.37/s ... 64-3gv.txz.
I guess I can replace gdm with mdm and edit the "source=" to the Mint repo.
Code: Select all
checking gnome-doc-utils >= 0.3.2... no
configure: error: gnome-doc-utils >= 0.3.2 not found
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
build() failed.
Built and installed mdm-1.0.4-x86_64-1cf.txz.
Now could someone tell me how to use MDM instead of GDM?
I tried editing /etc/rc.d/rc.4
Code: Select all
# Then try slim
if [ -x /usr/bin/slim ]; then
exec /usr/bin/slim
fi
# Then try mdm
if [ -x /usr/bin/mdm ]; then
exec /usr/bin/mdm -nodaemon
fi
# Someone thought that mdm looked prettier in /usr/sbin,
# so look there, too:
if [ -x /usr/sbin/mdm ]; then
exec /usr/sbin/mdm -nodaemon
fi
# Then try gdm
if [ -x /usr/bin/gdm ]; then
exec /usr/bin/gdm -nodaemon
fi
# Someone thought that gdm looked prettier in /usr/sbin,
# so look there, too:
if [ -x /usr/sbin/gdm ]; then
exec /usr/sbin/gdm -nodaemon
fi
