Where would one find all the necessary APIs and such to write a login manager?</p>enThu, 15 Apr 2010 16:06:33 -0400http://linuxexchange.org/questions/2/login-managers-user-switching/73<p>Have you looked at <a href="http://slim.berlios.de/" rel="nofollow">SLiM</a> or <a href="http://qingy.sourceforge.net/" rel="nofollow">Quingy</a>?
