Hi,

gfp@Tuxedo ~$ ps $(ps   -p $(pidof Xorg) -o ppid=)
  PID TTY      STAT   TIME COMMAND
 1114 tty8     Ssl+   0:00 
/gnu/store/58hc6rh72z3r6zqazmavjnwbcyy6gkps-gdm-42.0/libexec/gd

it shows gdm-42.0 as my display manager

this is in my .zprofile file, after adding the second sentence/your proposal

# Honor system-wide environment variables
source /etc/profile
# all Profile beim Start des Displays Managers öffnen
source ~/.bash_profile
..........................................................................

but it didn’t help to enable all profiles at login.


Kind regards

Gottfried
