Login Panel Setup

[Maurice Metternich]

Hello!

I'm trying to make my OS as NeXT-ish as possible. However I've been 
missing a good login manager. Eventually I came across loginpanel, which 
seems to be pretty neat. So I compiled it and got the loginpanel.app 
file. How do I set this up now? What files do I have to edit in order to 
start the login panel before starting windowmaker.

One thing I have to say that I'm new to this stuff. Having hardly used 
Linux before (expect for a basic Ubuntu installation) I switched to it 
from Mac OS X about 2 weeks ago. I'm currently using Debian since it's 
the only distribution that officially supports PowerPC processors (I'm 
on a PowerMac G5).

I'm thankful for every help I get.
