Hi,
thanks for helping me.
Can it be that MATE 1.24.1 desktop with gdm is already 3 years old,
and became slowly worse.
Since some month I have to enter my password at login twice,
now the additional monitor isn’t recognised any more,
even during starting it is recognised, but after the second login it is
not recognised anymore.
Could it be that MATE 1.24.1 became always worse through updating gdm
because now MATE 1.26 (already in Trisquel 11 used) und MATE 1.27 is
available, and after updating to a new version the support for the older
version is not so good any more?
16.04.2023 MATE 1.27
2021-08-10 09:00 MATE 1.26 released
2020-02-10 09:00 MATE 1.24 released
Kind regards
Gottfried

How can I install "lightdm" instead of "gdm"
I have never used lightdm but I think it is reasonably popular. You
may wish to wait for more responses before making such a drastic
change.
Have you tried switching into regular X.org (or into Wayland) using
the little sessions sprocket in the GDM login screen?
As for lightdm, the Guix reference manual offers an example
configuration here. [1] You would probably also want to remove the
gdm-service-type from %desktop-services with something like this:
(services
(append
(list
[...]
(service lightdm-service-type))
(modify-services %desktop-services
(delete gdm-service-type))))
That was typed by hand and is untested, but you can see a more general
example here. [2]
Kind regards
Felix
