Hello,
How do I add users in the tdm login interface ? For now, only the main user shows up, ignoring the other ones who have to write their identity manually before adding their password.
Cannot find that on internet, neither in the tde portal.

TCC -> System Administration -> Login manager -> Users tab. You will need root priviledges to change the settings there. Cheers Michele

Or you can use a text editor to make edits in /etc/trinity/tdm/tdmrc, which contains a lot of comments (unless it is overwritten by saving from the GUI configuration).
Cheers
Tks Yr prompt answer.
But, ...
I don't have a /etc/trinity/tdm/tdmrc file (debian stretch).
Found TCC and the module You mention, but the users i want to add are not mentionned there, just root and the main user (+hidden users like @cdrom, etc,...)
Bye 4now

You are right. The problem was i used vim (like in opensuse) instead a vi as command.
Hereafter the file :

why don't you use the gui as mentioned by Michele and Slavek?
also if the user is in the range it should show up automatically, if it is out of the range - why would you want to show this user?
here
#UserCompletion=true # Enable user list (names along with images) in the greeter. # Default is true #UserList=false # User selection for UserCompletion and UserList: # "NotHidden" - all users except those listed in HiddenUsers # "Selected" - only the users listed in SelectedUsers # Default is NotHidden #ShowUsers=Selected # For ShowUsers=Selected. @<group> means all users in that group. # Default is "" #SelectedUsers=root,johndoe # For ShowUsers=NotHidden. @<group> means all users in that group. # Default is "" #HiddenUsers=root # Special case of HiddenUsers: users with a non-zero UID less than this number # will not be shown as well. # Default is 0 MinShowUID=1000 # Complement to MinShowUID: users with a UID greater than this number will # not be shown as well. # Default is 65535 MaxShowUID=29999 # If false, the users are listed in the order they appear in /etc/passwd. # If true, they are sorted alphabetically. # Default is true #SortUsers=false # Specify, where the users' pictures should be taken from. # "AdminOnly" - from <FaceDir>/$USER.face[.icon] # "PreferAdmin" - prefer <FaceDir>, fallback on $HOME # "PreferUser" - ... and the other way round # "UserOnly" - from the user's $HOME/.face[.icon] # Default is AdminOnly #FaceSource=PreferUser # The directory containing the user images if FaceSource is not UserOnly. # Default is "/opt/trinity/share/apps/tdm/faces" #FaceDir=/usr/share/faces # Specify, if/which user should be preselected for log in. # "None" - do not preselect any user # "Previous" - the user which successfully logged in last time # "Default" - the user specified in the DefaultUser option # Default is None #PreselectUser=Previous

If you are still having trouble, here are the settings to check in kdmrc/tdmrc. In the [X-*-Greeter] section, make sure the following are set as needed:
[X-*-Greeter] HiddenUsers=root,spamd ShowUsers=NotHidden SortUsers=true UserList=true
The you can set a default user (if you want your always selected first, or the previous user, in that order) in the [X-:*-Greeter] section, e.g.
[X-:*-Greeter] DefaultUser=david FocusPasswd=true LoginMode=DefaultLocal PreselectUser=Previous
_Note:_ if you use the tdm kcontrol interface to change the settings, all comments (and they are very very good) will be stripped from the config file, so you may want to make a copy before using the control panel interface to make changes.
Finally solutionned it via the GUI.
Had to understand the role of the UID's in the configuration.
Once correctly set (max "number 1", min "number 2"), it worked. (relationning them when the numbers shown in the GUI "KUsers").
Here is now my tdmrc :
