Hi,
I've been working on patching uxlaunch to support an external session
switcher[1] as well as doing such a session switcher[2] the last few
evenings. RPMs are available in my home on OBS[3], would be nice to have
feedback from those of you having several UX installed, and currently
use other hacks to switch between them.
Current features, all of them can be disabled[4]:
- Select UX
- Select user
- Go through PAM password auth (useful for unlocking cryptofs through
pam, for example)
To install,
- configure the repository[3]
- install uxselect
- update uxlaunch
- add chooser=/usr/bin/uxselect to /etc/sysconfig/uxlaunch
- (optionally) edit /etc/xdg/aard/uxselect.conf
- kill uxlaunch or reboot
