Re: which display manager would you suggest for Stretch?

Hi, 

I suppose, it is based on the personal preferences. Many people will use gdm3, 
as Gnome is the default login manager.

However, I believe, that those, who were using kdm (like me) just would not 
notice, that kdm disappeared, as it will not be deinstalled during full-
upgrade.

Ok, what else? Well, sddm will not be usable for those people, who are using 
nvidia's proprietrary driver, as using them, sddm will not start.

I am running sddm on my EEEPC 1005HGO, which from the view and setting options 
I liked very much. 

However, at last I changed to lightdm, as the starting of sddm on this "slow" 
system (1,66GHz) is lasting about 1 minute, whilst lightdm is started below 10 
seconds. So, lightdm is my personal choice. 

However, no one is hindered to download kdm from backports, it is running very 
well on debian/testing.

So, hope, it does make things clearer.

Best regards

Hans
