Service Files

This folder contains the files necessary to set up lidm on start up for the supported init systems, all of them are configured for tty7.

If you don't know what a init system is, you're certainly using systemd.

There's make scripts to automatically copy the service files to the proper locations, you just have to run make install-service-$INIT. make install-service will attempt to detect the init system in use and install for it.

The manuall steps for installation are:

Systemd

  • Copy systemd.service to /etc/systemd/system/lidm.service.
  • To enable it you can run systemctl enable lidm

Dinit

  • Copy dinit to /etc/dinit.d/lidm.
  • To enable it, run dinitctl enable lidm.

Runit

  • Copy runit/ to /etc/runit/sv/lidm/.
  • Add the service with ln -s /etc/runit/sv/lidm /run/runit/service.
  • And to enable it sv enable lidm

Warning

Make sure to disable any other service that might run on tty7, such us lightdm or most display managers out there.
