I've pulled the port from snapshots and it built ;-)... Did you get nodm built, or just openpam? Because it looks like nodm requires libpam_misc, which isn't included in the openpam package.

Howdy Ryan? Thanks, this looks to be the sort of thing I'm after... hopefully I can get it to run on OBSD now ;) Dhu On Mon, 1 Apr 2013 22:43:14 -0400 Ryan Kavanagh wrote: > On Mon, Apr 01, 2013 at 08:14:20PM -0600, Duncan Patton a Campbell > wrote: > > I'm looking for the "right" way to start X on boot and run a default > > display program, much like xdm but with no login. > > I don't know about the "right" way, but I use nodm on my Debian boxes.

I don't know about the "right" way, but I use nodm on my Debian boxes. I don't see it in the ports tree and I don't know if it will work on OpenBSD, but it's worth a try. The homepage[0] is out of date, but you can get the latest version here[1].

Howdy all? I'm looking for the "right" way to start X on boot and run a default display program, much like xdm but with no login. Any pointers to similar would be greatly appreciated, thanks, Dhu -- Ne obliviscaris, vix ea nostra voco.
