Hello,

I lost my slim auto login and the French language in rox after upgrade my fresh install of Antix M8 base.

If someone can tell me why?

Regards

Maybe the upgrade messed up locales for language and a new slim.config file got installed.

Post contents of these files
/etc/slim.conf
/etc/default/locale

# File generated by update-locale
LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8

strange in root rox speak french and in user rox speak english.
and my toolbar change her language too.

# This command is executed after a succesful login.

# NOTE: if your system does not have bash you need

# i.e. for freebsd use:
# login_cmd exec /bin/sh - ~/.xsession %session
login_cmd exec /bin/bash -login ~/.xinitrc %session

# They can be used for registering a X11 session with

# sessionstop_cmd some command

# Note that this can overridden by the command line
# option"-d"
# daemon yes

# Available sessions (first one is the default).
# The current chosen session name is replaced in the login_cmd
# above, so your login command can handle different sessions.

auto login worked fast before and now i need to type my password

Thanks

For the language problem do this in a terminal as root:

echo"export LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8" >>/etc/profile
then logout/login.

For slim there are 2 entries for auto_login yes
Remove one.

(Though I think the upgrade of slim has 'broken' the auto-login function) __{{emoticon}}__

Thank you for the language all went ok.

For slim perhaps I change for gdm.

Regards.
