  feat(desktop): switch to LightDM for X startup (matches Ubuntu LiveCD)

  mchus released this 2026-03-27 22:17:59 +03:00 | 403 commits to main since this release

  startx from user shell has /dev/fb0 permission issues and is fragile.
  LightDM starts Xorg as root — standard LiveCD approach that works
  on server hardware / IPMI KVM with nomodeset + fbdev/vesa.

  • Add lightdm package, configure autologin as bee/openbox session
  • Add /usr/share/xsessions/openbox.desktop
  • Remove startx from .profile (LightDM manages X lifecycle)
  • Remove Xwrapper.config needs_root_rights workaround (no longer needed)
  • Enable lightdm.service in setup hook
