LightDM: Cross Desktop Display Manager
Robert Ancell is a GNOME developer, Ubuntu user and employee at Canonical Ltd. He is primarily interested in the free software desktop and works on a number of projects including Simple Scan, GNOME Games, GCalctool and LightDM.
LightDM is a new display manager (or login screen from a users point of view) that has been designed to be cross-desktop. This talk introduces the project, discusses the design and encourages listeners to get involved. A presentation will show how simple it is to write a GUI for LightDM and demonstrate GUIs using different toolkits.
