LightDM is a free and open-source X display manager that aims to be lightweight, fast, extensible and multi-desktop.[5] It can use various front-ends to draw the user interface,[6] also called Greeters.[7] It also supports Wayland.[8][9]

LightDM is the default display manager for Edubuntu, Xubuntu and Mythbuntu since the 11.10 release,[10][11][12] for Lubuntu since the 12.04 release[13] until 16.10,[14] for Kubuntu beginning with 12.10[15] until 15.04[16] for Linux Mint[17] and Antergos.

Features

Features include:

  • Codebase with very few dependencies
  • Supports different display technologies (X11 and Wayland through Mir)
  • Supports remote login (incoming – XDMCP, VNC, outgoing – XDMCP, pluggable)
  • Comprehensive test suite
  • Standards-compliance (PAM, logind, etc.)
  • Well-defined interface between the server and user interface
  • Cross-desktop (greeters can be written in any toolkit)
  • Well-defined greeter API allowing multiple GUIs
  • Support for all display manager use cases, with plug-ins where appropriate

LightDM has a simpler code base than GDM and does not load any GNOME libraries to work, but at the cost of some features that the user may or may not need.[18][19]

List of works by William Hogarth

This is a list of works by William Hogarth by publication date (if known). As a printmaker Hogarth often employed other engravers to produce his work and frequently revised his works between one print run and the next, so it is often difficult to accurately differentiate between works by (or for) Hogarth and those in the style of or after. Some of the less likely, possible, doubtful works and those formerly identified as Hogarth's works are listed at the end. Numbers in square brackets refer...
