Thanks for pointing it out. I am currently not using a display manager but I have multiple desktop environments installed. I believed that using a display manger would make switching DEs easier. I guess I got to find something else.]]>https://bbs.archlinux.org/profile.php?id=1137092018-05-18T07:52:51Zhttps://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1786054#p1786054It's unmaintained for ~5 years is the main thing that's wrong with it.
Why do you need a display manager?

I installed slim today and enabled the slim.service file. After this, my polkit authentication agent began asking for my password everytime I tried to connect to a network or tried to shutdown or restart my computer. I couldn't even access my audio devices unless I tried as root. After uninstalling slim, everything went back to normal again. But I need a login manager and I really like slim and want to use it. What is going wrong with it?]]>https://bbs.archlinux.org/profile.php?id=1137092018-05-17T16:59:17Zhttps://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1785948#p1785948
