Ok, this looks normal. At this point if you want to
track down the bug, i
suggest following:
Force reinstall tdm-trinity (unless you clean apt-cache the package is
in /var/cache/apt/archives, just dpkg -i the last version.
Okay, I tested that. Here are the results:
Summary:
Installing either slim or tdm-trinity overwrites the default display manager
to /usr/bin/slim not depending on the way I changed default dm, manually or
with dpkg-reconfigure.
Note: dpkg-reconfigure slim says:
Please be sure to run "dpkg --configure tdm-trinity".
But also after doing so, the faulty behavior persists. See below.
So, I should create a bug report in trinity bugzilla, I think.
Kind regards,
