How to have gdm become default of my archbang install?

Hello guys, I just installed archbang yesterday and loved it. However, it comes with openbox and I pacman'd gnome, gdm, and xfce4. The issue is that the current login prompt is still not gdm based. It seems like slim or something else which does not allow me to select the other installed desktop environments.
Any ideas?
Is there a way in archbang or archlinux for switching from slim to gdm, xdm or even kdm?
Thanks in advance. Arch is simply too nice.

I had already done that and folled the mini instruction there. It mentioned adding like (gdm) to the DAEMON (. . . .) startup services in a particular folder. I did that, but to no avail.
The wiki was how I did everything else.
EDIT: You are the man. I understand the step better now. I did not finish it. Do not know how I missed this step. It was almost 2 am when I was doing this install. Thanks a bunch. I will try when I get home.

  • How to have multiple default dimension members

    Hi There
    I am using AS2008, when editing a role, under the dimension data tab, under advanced, you can define a default dimension member.
    However i need my default dimension member to be members, i have tried using a attribute set to true for many members and creating a hierarchy.
    But neither works, it seems to randomly pick one Key for a set of members and you cannot use a hierarchy to define members.
    How can i define multiple default members ? what i really want is all members except one.
    Thanx

    We're going to need some more details about exactly what you did because it really sounds like you're making a mistake. This extra attribute should work.
    The only situation I can think of where it might not work as intended is if your new attribute is a property of the state attribute... when you slice by the state attribute, it will override the default member on the new attribute.
    What are your attribute relationships in that dimension? What do you get when you run the following MDX queries?
    with
    member test1 as [Geography].[State].DefaultMember.UniqueName
    member test2 as [Geography].[NewAttribute].DefaultMember.UniqueName
    select {test1,test2} on 0
    from YourCube
    select {} on 0,
    [Geography].[NewAttribute].[NewAttribute].Members
    *[Geography].[State].[State].Members on 1
    from YourCube
    As for the calculated member [Geography].[State].[All].[West], you can add to that to the MDX script (the Calculations tab in the cube designer) and it will be available to all sessions.http://artisconsulting.com/Blog/GregGalloway

    You mean for Office apps? That, I don't know for sure as I don't use MS Office on my Mac. I would check to see if there is some sort of MS Office uninstaller that needs to be run before dragging the icons to Trash. Either from one of the Office apps Help or About or search the Internet for a solution.

    What version of iPhoto and system are you running?  On the guess that you're running the latest iPhoto, 9.4.2, Try the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the thumnails, Option #2.
    2 - It may take 2-3 attempts so don't give up after only one attempt.

  • How do I change the default iPhone screen capture format to .jpg? I have an iPhone 5.

    How do I change the default iPhone screen capture format to .jpg?
    I have an iPhone 5 (but I'm sure users with other models would like to do this as well).
    My online searches have not found an answer -- I did find a discussion thread that was essentially, "Why would you want to do that?" Those posts are not welcome! Not looking for a work-around, an intermediate step, or the need to change the file format on a computer, etc. Just want to hit the two buttons and have the resulting capture be a JPEG file.
    Not interested in jailbreaking or using apps that require jailbreak -- Want to do this with a new phone.
    Thank you in advance for any help!!

    You can't.

    When I download Microsoft word documents (if have word 2007), I have somehow changed the settings and it downloads them in wordpad, and the format is very bad and I can't read a lot of the document. How do I change the default setting back to using Microsoft Word 2007 to open these documents?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == about a few weeks ago - I had tried to open some docuuments saved on a mac, my PC (which runs Windows 7), used word pad to open these, and this seems to have changed the default settings somehow.

  • Some of the apps previously downloaded have now become blank - white box instead of picture. Name of app still appears. Have tried hard reboot and sync to make sure everything is up to date. Anybody ever had this? How can I fix?

    Some of the apps previously downloaded have now become blank - white box instead of picture. Name of app still appears. Have tried hard reboot and sync to make sure everything is up to date. Anybody ever had this? How can I fix?

    One more thing to try.  Double click on the home button.  Scroll in that bottom line of icons (swipe finger to left) to the app that are all white.  Hold your finger on the app until the - sign appears.  Tap it to close the app.  Hopefully it will then show up correctly.  (As they say about chicken soup curing a cold, "can't hurt")

  • How can I reset the DEFAULT zoom view in Firefox at 125%, like IE, so I don't have to reset it every time ?

    How can I reset the DEFAULT zoom view in Firefox at 125%, like IE, so I don't have to reset it every time ?
    I have seen this question asked previously and it seems there is no answer.
    I know that one can change each individual web page (that reset defaults back to 100%) and, alternatively and apparently one can load an add-on to fix the default size at Full Zoom.
    ... But any hints on how to achieve a DEFAULT 125% zoom would be much appreciated.

    Press CTRL + 0
    Have you tried Firefox's zoom feature? Font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages
    You can "zoom" all sites using this add-on: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2592/ NoSquint]. After setting your global zoom level, you can still fine-tune the zoom on individual sites.
    After installing NoSquint, click the % on the Add-on Bar to call up site preferences, then click the Global Settings button, then the Zooming tab.
    If you don't have the Add-on Bar displayed, you can right-click the new tab button ("+") or a blank area of the tab bar to the right of it and choose Add-on Bar from the shortcut menu.
    You can experiment with sizes larger than 125%, but I wouldn't go much higher than 150% unless you have a large high-resolution monitor.
    If there are particular sites that still present a problem, feel free to post their URLs.
    You can find more information about the zoom features Firefox offers in these articles:
    [[Text zoom]] - For zooming text only
    [[Page zoom]] - For zooming the whole page (including images etc.)

  • Hello everyone, How do I add by default a date on the actual E-mail page the date and time of when I have sent the e-mail ? Thank you very much for your suggestions. Kind regards, Christopher H. Bull, Birmingham, UK.

    Birmingham, Thursday 2. Feb. 2012
    To whom it may concern,
    I have an issue regarding the e-mail system, and I wanted to know how I can add a default that the date and time is added automatically to the E-mail page everytime I draft a new e-mail.
    Does anyone know how do create a "plug-in" to enable me to have the date and t ime posted on the e0-mail page every time i send a new e-mail ?
    If there is a plug in which is compatible with Lion iMac computers thart insert the date and time into every E-mail I send ?
    Kind  regards

    This supports macros and variables, it doesn't specifically state date and time, but if it supports variables I'd be surprised if it didn't have variables for those:
    http://email.about.com/cs/mailplugins/gr/mailtemplate.htm
    This one also supports variables and may do what you want:

    Hi Hannah,
    Inspector > Text > Tabs Button > Tab Settings > Default Tabs.
    To set a tab stop on the go, click in the ruler.
    If you can't see the ruler, Menu > View > Show Rulers.
    To set tab stops for lines (paragraphs) you have already typed, select those paragraphs and set them all at once.
    Also, have a look at Menu > Pages > Preferences > Rulers.
    Regards,
    Ian.

    How do I change the default apple id (email address) that is prompted on my iPhone? It prompts me with an id that I do not have and cannot access.

    When do you get prompted for this ID? If you are asked for an AppleID
    you do not know during Activation, contact the seller for assistance. Only
    the person who set the Activation Lock can remove it. If the seller refuses
    or does not know the requested AppleID and passcode, return the iPhone
    for a full refund as it is useless. There is no work around for Activation Lock,
    The person who set the lock needs to follow the actions in this link:
    Prepare your device to sell or give away
    You can check if Activation Lock is the problem here:
    https://www.icloud.com/activationlock/
    That link will only tell you if the iPhone is Activation Locked - it will not provide
    any information about the source of the lock, nor can you get any information
    from any source other than the original owner of the iPhone/person who set
    the lock.
