Hi everybody and sorry to enter your thread,
I also need to install "light" system on hold systems.
I've replaced the missing lightdm by
sddm (Qt5 based) - IMHO, it's sound better than gdm, because it does not import tens of gnome dependencies.
Code: Select all
dnf install sddm
systemctl enable sddm.service
systemctl unmask sddm.service
Kr, Olivier
Wellll...... I just tried to install sddm. I am /was a BIG fan of sddm before RH broke it which forced me to go looking for an alternative which was lightdm. It seems in 8.1 when you type dnf install sddm it comes back and now gives you,
"No match for argument: sddm Error: Unable to find a match: sddm
Likewise I was unable to find Grub Customizer, comes with the same to error messages as above just swap out sddm for grub-customizer.
Amarok my favorite tunes player is also missing, but the too may be due to the fact of my installation method.
Tomorrow I go in search of some DL DVD's and see if I can burn DVD1.iso, then I might do a complete reinstall. 8.1 shows some promise, but still has a ways to go.
