Hello list, I was watching the discussion and decided to share my
experience of using a lightweight dm. In my case it's qingy[1]. Actually
I use it like a replacement of getty (i.e. in text-only mode) with the
ability to select different sessions. The graphical screen will also
let users reboot or shutdown (this is what was missing in XDM).

All best,
