There are alternative session managers like XDM or KDM. On Debian testing you should have access to the light LXDE session manager, whose name I don't remember exactly, maybe lxsession-manager. If you really don't want to use a session manager, it is possible to start Xorg then your graphical environment in the latest stage of system boot. I've done this kind of tweaks one day by putting a line in “/etc/rc.local” using the command startx. You'll have to add another line to start your graphical environment. However I don't know how this would deal with the logout/shutdown commands of your environment, maybe you should remove all these stuff and simply rely on the power off button. Is your need to have a DDL without the 2 most advanced sessions Mini and Whole DDL? If yes think this is a need we could think about. Maybe I can also provide a tweak to hide these sessions in the session menu. Note that in DDL we are using GDM to provide the session menu, it cannot be removed, but I would like to replace this tweak by a dedicated application that would better fit our needs. > This is an improvement over what they have now. It's fast on a P4. Not surprising, when you start from a net install, you get only what is required to make the system run, no services that may be required for very special needs and consume resources. This is the way DDL was designed, on a minimal install base!
