User Notes: http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/kde-workspace
It is recommended to have a dedicated user and group to take
control of the kdm
daemon after it is started. Issue the following commands as the
root
user:
groupadd -g 37 kdm && useradd -c "KDM Daemon Owner" -d /var/lib/kdm -g kdm \ -u 37 -s /bin/false kdm && install -o kdm -g kdm -dm755 /var/lib/kdm
Install Kde-workspace by running the following commands:
mkdir build && cd build && cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$KDE_PREFIX \ -DSYSCONF_INSTALL_DIR=/etc \ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \ -DINSTALL_PYTHON_FILES_IN_PYTHON_PREFIX=TRUE \ -Wno-dev .. && make
Now, as the root
user:
make install && mkdir -p /usr/share/xsessions && ln -sf $KDE_PREFIX/share/apps/kdm/sessions/kde-plasma.desktop \ /usr/share/xsessions/kde-plasma.desktop
-DINSTALL_PYTHON_FILES_IN_PYTHON_PREFIX=TRUE
: This
option is set to install the KDE Python objects in the correct
place.
If you built KDE Workspace with
Linux PAM support, create
necessary configuration files by running the following commands
as the root
user:
cat >> /etc/pam.d/kde << "EOF" && # Begin /etc/pam.d/kde auth requisite pam_nologin.so auth required pam_env.so auth required pam_succeed_if.so uid >= 1000 quiet auth include system-auth account include system-account password include system-password session include system-session # End /etc/pam.d/kde EOF cat > /etc/pam.d/kde-np << "EOF" && # Begin /etc/pam.d/kde-np auth requisite pam_nologin.so auth required pam_env.so auth required pam_succeed_if.so uid >= 1000 quiet auth required pam_permit.so account include system-account password include system-password session include system-session # End /etc/pam.d/kde-np EOF cat > /etc/pam.d/kscreensaver << "EOF" # Begin /etc/pam.d/kscreensaver auth include system-auth account include system-account # End /etc/pam.d/kscreensaver EOF
