So you retain the choice of desktop surface when you chose your display manager. Actually it shows the same options like gdm3 (Gnome) in a different way of display. No, it does not show you a screwed up desktop after successful user login. In the top left corner sddm and slim show the different available GUI flavours like Gnome, Unity, Ubuntu, w/o Wayland, XFCE etc.Ĭhoose before swaying at the display manager. sudo apt-get install sddm would be one solution in the arena under a debian circus tent. (you need to type your name and pwd - it is so slim it does not even offer drop down - very interesting experience, nice!) Sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm3 (well known, convenient!! until it crashes your machine due to the "energy saver" bulls*** typical Gnome, looks good until you find out all the problems and shortcomings and design issues and pitfalls and unresolved issues and and and. Sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm (really light avoids f***-up due to "energy saver" problems!) Sudo dpkg-reconfigure sddm (lovely! unknown WM login.) I use it with Ubuntu 22.04 in the moment and it is still fun! It is fun and it does not break anything (my personal experience). So do not hesitate to run the config command just to try a different one. No, it does not immediately kill your GUI - this is just about login and WM and I use it with Lunbuntu, XFCE4, Wayland, Gnome, Unity, Ubuntu-X, Ubuntu-Wayland. Right, it is not about installing the whole environment and stuff. Just try to switch the WM (window managers) back and forth. I'd have answered the question " Switching window manager ?" different:Ī WM (window manager) is something different than a desktop environment! It's like shoes and feet.
