# This module declares the options to define a *display manager*, the # program responsible for handling X logins (such as LightDM, GDM, or SDDM). # The display manager allows the user to select a *session # type*. When the user logs in, the display manager starts the # *session script* ("xsession" below) to launch the selected session # type. The session type defines two things: the *desktop manager* # (e.g., KDE, Gnome or a plain xterm), and optionally the *window # manager* (e.g. kwin or twm). { config, lib, options, pkgs, ... }: with lib; let cfg = config.services.xserver; opt = options.services.xserver; xorg = pkgs.xorg; fontconfig = config.fonts.fontconfig; xresourcesXft = pkgs.writeText "Xresources-Xft" '' Xft.antialias: ${if fontconfig.antialias then "1" else "0"} Xft.rgba: ${fontconfig.subpixel.rgba} Xft.lcdfilter: lcd${fontconfig.subpixel.lcdfilter} Xft.hinting: ${if fontconfig.hinting.enable then "1" else "0"} Xft.autohint: ${if fontconfig.hinting.autohint then "1" else "0"} Xft.hintstyle: hintslight ''; # file provided by services.xserver.displayManager.sessionData.wrapper xsessionWrapper = pkgs.writeScript "xsession-wrapper" '' #! ${pkgs.bash}/bin/bash # Shared environment setup for graphical sessions. . /etc/profile cd "$HOME" # Allow the user to execute commands at the beginning of the X session. if test -f ~/.xprofile; then source ~/.xprofile fi ${optionalString cfg.displayManager.job.logToJournal '' if [ -z "$_DID_SYSTEMD_CAT" ]; then export _DID_SYSTEMD_CAT=1 exec ${config.systemd.package}/bin/systemd-cat -t xsession "$0" "$@" fi ''} ${optionalString cfg.displayManager.job.logToFile '' exec &> >(tee ~/.xsession-errors) ''} # Load X defaults.
