Package for Slackware 14.1 x64: latest version of the LXDM graphical login manager. Very usefull if you want a graphical login on your Slackware box, and use XFCE as desktop environment.

If your regular user account is not in the audio group, then make sure you explicitly add it to that group. Otherwise, no sound for you after logging in with lxdm.

 

Enjoy 😉
