Calendar Grey October 27, 2009
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Users of Fedora 11 are encouraged to upgrade to slim-1.3.1-8.fc11 to benefit from a streamlined login manager that includes the latest fixes and security improvements.

Summary

SLiM (Simple Login Manager) is a graphical login manager for X11.

It aims to be simple, fast and independent from the various

desktop environments.

SLiM is based on latest stable release of Login.app by Per Lidén.

In the distribution, slim may be called through a wrapper, slim-dynwm,

which determines the available window managers using the freedesktop

information and modifies the slim configuration file accordingly,

before launching slim.
