#About This is a simple greeter for LightDM based on Kivy. I guess this is nothing for production, just a demonstration what can be made.

ScreenShot

#Requirements

  • Deb packages: liblightdm-gobject-1-0 gir1.2-lightdm-1 python-gobject
  • And of course Kivy

#Installation

  1. Assure you are using as lightDM as your login-manager
  2. cp kivy-greeter.py /usr/local/bin/
  3. cp kivy-greeter.desktop /usr/share/xgreeters/
  4. make sure kivy-greeter is executable: chmod +x /usr/local/bin//kivy-greeter.py
  5. Activate the kivy-greeter: open /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf and append/change: greeter-session=kivy-greeter
  6. reboot or initctl restart lightdm

#Debuging lightdm --test-mode --debug => kivy logs are in: $HOME/.cache/lightdm/log/x-1-greeter.log
