Description:
In the /etc/inittab config file we have perfectly working examples for how to start a respawning login manager for nearly every login manager available: # Example lines for starting a login manager #x:5:respawn:/usr/bin/xdm -nodaemon #x:5:respawn:/usr/sbin/gdm -nodaemon #x:5:respawn:/opt/kde/bin/kdm -nodaemon #x:5:respawn:/usr/bin/slim >& /dev/null The only login-manager, of the ones which are mostly used, which is missing as an example is entrance. Couldn't we just add it: #x:5:respawn:/usr/sbin/entranced -nodaemon &> /dev/null Additional info: * Package: initscripts Steps to reproduce: grep entranced /etc/inittab ;) |
This task depends upon

Reason for closing: Won't implement
Additional comments about closing: Examples are examples. There are enough there that people should "get it". This is too much coddling.
