I installed Ubuntu mini 12.10 and then I did apt-get install lxde-core lightdm-gtk-greeter.
I successfully changed the LightDM screen resolution editing the /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf and adding display-setup-script=xrandr -s 1280x720.
How to add an image for the power and settings icons in the lightdm-gtk-greeter screen? Right now, it looks like this:
Hello everyone, I'm using xfce in conjunction with lightdm (gtk-greeter).Everything is working thus far except one thing:If I don't set "greeter-hide-users=true" in lightdm.conf, it keeps displaying "lightdm" (uid 620) and "git daemon" (uid 619) as users.I set "minimum-uid=1000" and even "hidden-users=nobody nobody4 noaccess lightdm git"
Is there any way I can use LightDM themed with the Unity greeter with a systemd-based init? The lightdm-unity-greeter package available in the AUR depends upon lightdm-ubuntu, which conflicts with lightdm. lightdm provides a systemd unit, but lightdm-ubuntu does not. Is there another way to have lightdm-ubuntu start on boot even though it doesn't have systemd support?P.S.

Unity-greeter crashes, and constantly respawns, not letting me in. So, I configured auto login but that won't start anything except Unity session. I changed the lightdm.conf file to run Xubuntu but Unity still shows up. If I create a new user, it will start in Xubuntu just fine.
In Ubuntu lightdm log-in screen, guest session can be logged in without a password. Although guest gets lower privilege and can’t run sudo command, you can remove it from login screen via following way.
Edit LightDM configuration file “/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf”. This need root privilege, use sudo nautilus command to start file browser with super user.
I would really like to see a transition towards LightDM.
