Alternative to Session/Display Manager:
I hate display managers, because they’re set up to work with desktop environments, not bare window managers. Here’s my solution.
I write a .xinitrc-style file for each window manager I care to have on my system.
I put them each in directories under a directory I made, ~/.sessions, like so.
~/.sessions/”1 i3-gaps” ~/.sessions/”2 CWM”
and so on. Lastly, I put an empty folder called “6 Console.”
then I put the following script in a file called z-login.sh in /etc/profile.d:
if [[ "$LOGNAME" == "alloca" ]] # substitute your username here then if [[ "`tty`" == "/dev/tty1" ]] then clear figlet Welcome echo ls -1 /home/alloca/.sessions | /bin/sh | fzf +m --layout=reverse-list --prompt="Choose a Desktop: " --no-info --height=7 | read sessionpath if [[ "$sessionpath" == "6 Console" ]] # Replace this with whatever number your empty folder ended up being. then clear else startx /home/alloca/.sessions/"$sessionpath"/init logout fi fi fi
Make sure you have fzf and figlet installed for this. If you don’t want an ascii art “Welcome” banner you can just delete the “figlet Welcome” line instead. Also make sure you don’t have a session manager activated in systemd.
fzf is like dmenu for the terminal. I’ve used several programs that badly want to be fzf, but it took me this long to find fzf itself!
You’ll login at the console logind prompt, then after all the other login scripts, z-login.sh will be run automatically, and you will see a very elegant and minimalist menu.
This is what it looks like, though this is a dry run in a terminal:

In my previous article, I had explained how to create a new user in Linux. Today you will learn how to modify an existing user account in Linux using the usermod command.
usermod stands for “User Modification”.
As a Linux Administrator, many times you get requests for modifications in existing User such as change the primary group of the user, add a user to one/multiple supplementary groups, change login name, Lock or Unlock an account, change the Home directory, change UID or GID and so on.
You have to run the usermod command as a root user because upon running this command, it makes changes to the following important configuration files whose owner is root.
/etc/passwd
/etc/shadow
/etc/gshadow
/etc/group
